Ok, interesting question, and probably completely unrelated.. but,
Have any of you found your cycle changed while you were on meds? I am on the start of my 3rd month taking them, and after the 1st month, I found my hormones etc weren't affecting me during my cycle, this month i have even found i have had no cramps, bloating, ov pains, or anything else like that. All I have is a very large and pretty painful bust and an AF that is now 6 days overdue.. I mean apart from the obvious (which isn't really, since mike's been given the all clear) what the heck is going on? Any ideas? ------------- Janine and her 2 cool chicks, Paris & Ayja

No idea, lol! But when I first went to see the natural health practitioner after I had a huge allergic resction to my antidepressants and had to come off them, after assessing me and all my symtoms he said it seemed mine was a hormal problem not so much a chemical imbalance. I have since been getting natural treatment to correct the hormone imbalance and have been med free and doing great for nearly 3 months!
Thats prob not helpful at all really! Lol! |

If your meds have hormones in them, it would make sense that they are doing something with your cycle. Like my pains and the BCP, the pains are a lot better with the hormones suppressing stuff -------------  |
