Hi
I've had bad fluctuations (unknown to me) while taking yasmin as the SHGB took a hold if it and stopped it from working as yhe estrogen was too much So it got binded.
GP agreed last night.
I've had bad anger ....just like in 21 when my peri started ...smashing stuff hitting radiators cowering shivering in ghe corner of the bedroom it was bad ....Dr's near knew it was peri ....they nearly took me away seriously it was embarrassing as I work in this field.
So these fluctuations have come back to haunt me and I can't take it any more. Yesterday again anger .  No one in the flat just me throwing cushions , punched the set of drawers, then the crying comes ....exactly the same as 21 even GP said you're fluctuating.
So I'm day 3 today of my pill break bleed and boy have I shed already ...
So my question....primarily to Bombsh3ll if that's OK....and everyone too.- how soon can I start this Slynd ..  .I'm getting desperate can't go out or anything .....I usually leave yye bleed til about day 7 then back to yasmin but this time it's been alot worse.....alot worse! I was going to give it til noon ish today see if the blood has gone down/ not alot there and start today what do you think,?
I shed alot last night (sprry) a big piece ws at the bottom of the loo no wonder I had pains lol.....please please help as they want me back at work on 22nd which is next Wed I know things don't work straight away but I'm desperate.  Please help I'm at yhe end of my rope and not coping with my terrible presentation....love u all xxx vic xxx

Just start it now, there is nothing to gain by waiting.

It is unlikely to stop the bleeding straight away but it should lighten and tail off over the coming days.

It might take a few weeks but if you take the slynd consistently every day with no breaks, most women are bleed free after the first few months, and those who aren't generally only have light occasional bleeding or spotting.

Ahhhh bombsh3ll I was hoping you'd come through!
I've just had a questions and answers with a obs gynae who agreed you can start today or we say between days 1-5 of your bleed is OK....I asked if ny patch woukd raise this SHGB he saud no cos the patch bypasses the liver. He explained that the fake estrogen in the combined pill goes through the liver and over stimulates it creating alot of SHGB which can then bind it....that's what's happened to me he said .
He said 7-14 days to suppress, and about 2-6 weeks for my mood and energy to take a shift . Xxxx
