Teenager labour like period pains
My 13 year old daughter suffers from pain towards the end of her periods. Unbearable and I can only describe it as like watching someone in labour. The pain is beyond what she can manage and leaves her physically and mentally done in. GP has been trying her on various contraceptive pills. Since starting

Am I pregnant?
So I’ve taken 3 different tests and got a faint second line on all 3 and they get darker each time I was supposed to have my period a few weeks ago but only had a little spotting due to getting over birth control and really wondering if I’m truly pregnant or not? My husband and I are hoping so but I

Life with Ectopics - 20 years old
Hi, my name is Abbie McDonald, and I am currently 20 years old. I have had heart issues, specifically ectopics, for over 6 years now. My story is quite long but I will do my best to summarise it all. It all started after my HPV vaccine at school in Year 10. Following the jab, I came down with cold

Melatonin can induce arrhythmia!
ARTICLE
: "Sleep Medications Containing Melatonin can Potentially Induce Ventricular Arrhythmias in Structurally Normal Hearts: A 2-Patient Report" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/articles/PMC5642341/ Yikes! As I had reported earlier, I seemed to have miraculously ended my afib inadvertently

Thinking Back
Well before my PAF attacks were recognised, I used to feel quite ill after spraying roses (tired and lethargic). Also if the council came around the streets spraying weeds on pavements that would affect me too. I have to admit I don't spray roses anymore. Also cleaning the bath with a spray cleaner

PMDD
I’m just becoming aware that I have PMDD. It’s scary as hell. I feel alone, crazy, and embarrassed. I don’t remember having these episodes before I stopped using birth control last year but every month it seems to get worse. I feel increasingly suspicious of my husband every month the week or two before

Pain, hormones and losing the will
I should also add that I do not need to use contraceptives as
contraception
. Though I might want to in the future. At the moment all of this means I am not even able to have a sex life even if I wanted to! I guess this is the best contraceptive of all!

Hi, does garlic affect birth control pills? I found this information and I don't know is it true.

Can I continuously take the combined pill?
Hello, I have been on the combined pill (microgynon) for almost 3 years now and i have been seeing a lot of posts on social media that its okay to continuously take the pill every day which can stop the “period” rather than have a 7 day break? Is this safe? Will it protect me from pregnancy?

Body position helping ectopic beats
OK, it is 4 am… My PAF (which was weekly or twice a week) seems to have morphed into lots of ectopics in the last 4 weeks. The upside is less AF (just went almost 3 weeks in NSR, not complaining 🥴) but we all know the PACs and/or PVCs can almost feel worse. Does anyone else notice that sitting up

Info on Dabigatran please
I tried taking Apixaban but, unfortunately, had a strong allergic reaction to the lactose in the pill. My doctor has now suggested Dabigatran - has anyone any experience of this?

Gederal Pill - HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE
I thought I would share my experience on this pill. Omg, it was not a pleasant experience. I was on Gederal for around a year after previously trying two other contraceptive pills and not getting along with them. When I first went on Gederal, I had no bad side effects and for the first few months everything

Myocarditis and racing heart
Im 3 month in recovering from myocarditis and periocarditis. Taking colcherine and ibuprofen but still not recovered. Having palpitations, racing heart and chest pain a few times a week and zero energy. I’m confused as to how normal this can be in recovery or if there’s something else going on. Right
