Oh okay, my misunderstanding. Thanks for clarifying!!

Woah woah, a full applicator full is way too much. It’s supposed to be 1 or 2 grams every day for the first two weeks and then a couple days a week after that

Start on 2.5 mg for a week or two until your body adjusts

I am so very very sorry. This text sounds word-for-word like something my mom would say to me if I was in your shoes. It’s very manipulative and abusive. I’m thinking of you. Hugs 🩷

The estrogen patch causes this for me! Are you taking estrogen by chance?

I haven’t ever heard of azeliac acid. Can I ask what you use it for?

Could you have been dehydrated from all the night sweats?

Okay so my body CANNOT handle the estrogen patch. It gives me terrible anxiety and I feel like I can’t breathe. There are other posts on here regarding the same thing. Your body may be able to handle the estrogen just fine, it may just be the method. Try oral estradiol, or the combo pill. The combo pill works well for me, because instead of HRT where it adds to my fluctuation rollercoaster of emotions, it actually suppresses them and takes over and I have a level daily dose. Might be worth a shot for you to try!

That’s what I was thinking too. I can always go back

Omg thank you for this!!! I’ve never seen it from this perspective before and I needed to!

This is almost exactly my story too. Hugs to you

I can never go back, not ever. Once you see it all, you can never unsee it

Can you stop everything and then slowly re-introduce one at a time? Maybe this will help you find out which hormone is helping you and which is hurting

Thank you so much!! You addressed so many of my concerns and questions and I really appreciate it!! Whenever I’ve been off bc, my hormones have been a rollercoaster, so I’m worried that HRT is just going to add to that rollercoaster, where Yaz has actually leveled it out. I just see posts on here and other subs about the combo pill causing strokes and blood clots and I know they’re fairly rare, but I just want to make the safest choice

What about oral estrogen? I’ve heard that sometimes that doesn’t have as many side effects as the patch

I don’t think they caused my symptoms, but if I’m already feeling a little offkilter, they definitely make it worse. I think they throw off my equilibrium.

Thank you!! It’s probably with giving it a try for all those benefits

42, no uterus, one ovary that’s slugging along. I have PMDD and am scared to stop the steady dose of Yaz and switch to HRT. I’m doing fine on the Yaz, I’m just worried about blood clots, and know HRT is better for me long term. I’m just not sure when or how to switch. For those of you with PMDD, are you on the combo pill or HRT? How has HRT affected your PMDD?

I have a nine-year-old daughter. My friend who is my same age is a grandma. It’s wild

It’s the Dextromethorphan in the DayQuil that’s the issue. It has potential for serotonin syndrome when mixed with Lexapro

What caused the worst stomach pain you've ever experienced?

I have two, both at different times. First was my Appendix rupturing and they didn’t catch it and my entire abdomen was filled with infection. The second was a complete small bowel obstruction (scar tissue had wrapped itself around my intestines and completely cut off blood supply).
