prozac for hormonal imbalance

I am not reaching menopause or anything like that, but I am suspicious about a sex hormonal imbalance. I am taking thyroid medicine for hypothyroidism and still have not found optimal dose. About 6 months ago I started to have lots of headaches, everyday. I also started to spot before my period, maybe a week before and now two days before. I have a lot of pain when having my period and headaches jut leave me useless. My bowels also changed during this time.

But since then I have felt nauseous, my breast and nipples hurt and recently have cotent pink discharge i doubt im pregnant since me and my boyfriend have only had sex once and used back up contraceptive. Could it be the hormonal imbalance in my body since i changed everything around? Im very worried??

Could all of this inflammation + weight gain + inability to lose weight+ insomnia + acne indicate an increase in cortisol and or a hormonal imbalance? I saw my doctor who is an internist and pediatrician and he ACTUALLY laughed in my face. I am seeing on the internet that seems to be the norm.

Hello, I'm hoping to shed some light on an issue that I've been dealing with recently...I've never been a "hyper" person...nothing has changed in the way of my personal or professional life...but my menstrual cycle has been a little off in the past 6 months. I just turned 30 and have never been pregnant I do get regular menses BUT now I seem to have really bad PMS.

when i was ten i experience hormonal imbalance. many changes happens pubic hair started to grow, i even grow tall, my voice changes which is very unnatural for a person like me. Due to lack of money my mother didn`t put interst on it. I grow as a happy and jolly person even if i am conscious facing my problem. I laugh even if i`m not happy just to be happy and just to hide what ihave..Would somebody know what is my disease? pls. help... plssssss..

Post-partum depression is a hormonal imbalance, and no antidepressant will change that. You might feel better, but then you're on an antidepressant, and they have their own problems. Because these meds have different effects on different individuals, nobody can tell you how you'll experience it -- their experience won't necessarily have any resemblance to yours.

Hi Welcome to the MedHelp forum! Your symptoms could be due to menopause or pemenopause or due to hormonal imbalance of PCOD, anemia, diabetes, hypothyroidism, or due to kidney or liver problems. Another possibility is sleep disturbances (like sleep apnea, imbalance of rapid eye and non rapid eye movement sleep etc.). You may sleep your customary 7-8 hours and yet feel fatigued. You need sleep studies to rule this out.

m not for doctors trying to sedate you instead of treating you. You have a hormonal imbalance, and prozac doesn't treat that, so you'll still have one, you just won't care as much about it if it works. Now, you haven't been on it long enough for it to work, but if I were you, and I'm not, I'd look into natural methods of regulating hormonal fluctuations until you reach balance.

If you have a hormone imbalance, can it make your birth control less effective? I haven't been able to find much info on this but I suspect I have a hormonal imbalance due to the pill so I was wondering if that could mean the pill would be less effective against pregnancy.

t understand how they can diagnose a hormonal imbalance from a u/s? Did your dr do any bloodwork to come to that conclusion?

- extreme fatigue (can be in bed for 4-5 days) - acne breakouts (once a month) - headaches and migraines - increase in appetite - insomnia - brain fog - low mood - anxiety (getting treatments for this) - I have an Implanon so I don't get periods. But I recall them being heavy. - Increase in body hair I also eat healthily, exercise regularly and sleep well (when not going through this).

Naw, Prozac is most commonly used as an antidepressant. Actually, for younger people, it's the most commonly prescribed antidepressant, and it definitely doesn't mean you have serious problems. :) Your doc probably just thought to give it a try because it tends to have fewer side effects than other drugs. It's almost the same as any other SSRI, it just has a longer half life than most so you're eased onto and off of it (which hopefully means less side effects). Good luck!!

Hi there. Possibly a hormonal imbalance or you have fibroids. You should see a doctor for an exam to determine the exact cause of this.

m broke out like a 16 year-old, might very well be a hormonal imbalance---too much estrogen maybe. I have not taken any birth control since 2003, and at that time I was on a 3-phase pill. I also have no children. What I'm hearing success with is the single-phase, low estrogen contraceptives---the ones that keep a steady flow of hormones in your system throughout the month. Has anyone had any success with treating anxiety/depression symptoms with birth control?

pray for healing. I am currently taking Buspar for anxiety and Zoloft for depression. (The hardest thing about of this is, I live in a very rural town in TN. Most people in this tiny, southern, town frown upon mental illness in the first place. Any doctors here would truly have to be educated about OCD and the symptoms I am dealing with to even half way understand it. They automatically think people are just "crazy.
