Hi All,
I'm just finished my first pack of qlaira and im due to start another pack today. However, for the past week ive been getting frequent headaches. I never really suffer from headaches maybe once a year .today I have a throbbing headache. Worst ive ever had. Im unsure about continuing onto the next pack. I also had increased sweating where I really felt on fire during the month. I'm quite fed up really as I feel like ive been suffering for 2+ years. I have 3 other types of birth control in my cupboard- I have yasminelle 0.02mg ethinyestradoiol and 3mg drospirone which I took for 10 years but had difficulty with increased anxiety abd acid reflux with stinging sensations in skin in last year before coming off it into a few months of good times and then hell began. Then I have yasmin which is 0.03mg etginylestradiol and 3mg drospirenone and I have microlite which is 100mg levonorgestrel and 20mg ethinylestradiol.
Or I can continue with the qlaira for another month. My doctors really are not great at this. They just think I have anxiety and depression but I know that its all hormonal as life was going great when this all started. I was also told it was just pms but sweating profusely is and periods going from regular to barely there and coming anything from 21 to 34 days.
My joints ache terribly especially ny lowerback and my hands and feet. Ive gad every test under the sun and im told in healthy but I feel anything but. Ive had ectreme nausea and dizziness also during ovulation and periods. This stage of life truly is awful. I have a pelvic scan in October- other than that only one doctor has said I may be heading for early menopause (i'm 35), but I cant get the gynecology department in the local hospital to believe me. They wouldnt even run blood tests last time I wss there. All they would do was swab for infections. I also mentioned to them that I felt that mid cycle that I could feel like I was sitting on a ball whenever I sat down and vaginal dryness and stil nothing........ my bits have even gotten smaller looking!! It is all so frustrating. I wonder will I ever be me again. Having this site just helps so much. It really does. Im crying!!! Gosh these hormones suck big time!!!
