Experiences with

Contraception

Hello everyone, Keen to know your thoughts on this as I await a GP appointment. A quick backstory: I’m 26 years old and have PCOS. From aged 15 to 20/21. I was on the pill to regulate a period since I’d never had one ever before. Since stopping I’ve had a period 16 times, so that’s 16 times since

After a ablation in-2016 I’ve been AFib free Recently my ECGs are showing rhythm with occasional premature ventricular contractions (PVCs). This is fairly frequent I’m also showing high BP during episodes my BP is normally pretty low 100/70 ish Should I be concerned?

What's the longest time any of you have had episodes of PVCs for? I've been having a flare-up for just over 2 months now, ever since I had an infection (unrelated to the heart). Seeing a Cardiologist on Wednesday. I'll be interested to hear your experiences, I need reassurance. Thanks.

This round of research focuses on the male contraception content on the NHS website, focusing on condoms and vasectomy. The research will be conducted via Microsoft Teams. It will take the form of a video chat. It will last around 45-60 mins.

I've been having heart palpatations for about a year now. My smart watch regularly tells me I'm in Afib and I have an app that records my watch ECG. Of all these, I've had 91% abnormal results, with a PVC burden of 23%. I've had a 6 day holter on and should recieve feedback from this next week. I'm struggling

I had laproscopy 4 days ago, they removed a chocolate cyst and found in-active endometriosis by my ovary. They didn't remove this inactive endometriosis, what is in-active endometriosis and will that reactivate? I'm currently on the pill for symptoms but concerned when I come off the pill symptoms will

Hi all women suffering with period issues, I'm 18 and have been having issues since my first period, I was so ashamed of what was happening to me because I knew that not being able to walk, bleeding through multiple pads and having to stay in bed during my menstruation due to having no energy and too

I hope you are all wellMy question : Has anyone experienced episodic "quivering" sensations that are very brief, 10 seconds or so? I've had something similar before, several years ago and wore a Zio patch for 2 weeks but never picked up any A-fib only PACs and PVCs. I am now 67 year old dx with paroxsymal

Hello on this lovely sunny day! Please can I ask for some advice? I’m 5 years on after being diagnosed with sero positive RA. I am meant to start medication number 7, nowish. I’m reluctant. Most medications make me feel very poorly 🤒 I started out with all this, I believe due to a contraceptive

Hi Everyone, I'm using this as a last resort because I wanted to know if anyone else deals with the same problem. I've had endometriosis for years, but in the last two years I've been dealing with constant canker sores (mouth ulcers). They happen throughout the month and are so painful. Sometimes

2 months ago I was hospitalised for a facial infection. I was given strong antibiotics and ever since I've had PVCs every day for hours at a time. I've had them for 10 years and they've been controlled well with daily Flecainide and Verapamil, until now. I've got a 7 day holter monitor on at present

Bit of a silly question but just wondering when I have my 7 day break from my combined pill, if I take the pill on the 8th day am I still protected straight away even thought I’ve just taken the break?

I am 30 years old. I started menstruating at the age of 10. When I was around 14, I would have these random "attacks" of abdominal pain that left me crippled. There have been occasions my mum had to lift me out of the bath, because I felt like my insides had totally twisted. Now, I shower. But there

more photos because I’m still confused on if this is implantation or not. for starters my period is VERY irregular so counting on that is not an option for me. i had unprotected sex and while I’m on the pill it was the very last week where I was suppose to be on my period. But I didn’t get my period

Hi everyone! I'll try keep this as short as possible. I suffered from acne pretty badly around the age of 11 for a few years, took Roaccutane, it cleared up, medication did it's job.

hi, For starters, I am on birth control. 11 days ago I had unprotected sex where my partner finished inside of me. I was on my last week of pills but didn’t have a period. It was just the sugar pills so I didn’t bother taking them. today I’ve been experiencing really painful cramps, extremely sore

hi all!! Not been on for a while but am glad to see this is still going strong. I was diagnosed with endometriosis in 2015, I tried everything and eventually settled with the marina coil which improved my symptoms drastically. In 2018 I had the coil removed to try for a baby and was lucky enough to
