THE LITTLE PILL THAT PROMOTES WEIGHT LOSS, NO DRUGS NEEDED
An ingestible device inflates in the stomach to provide satiety and then quickly disintegrates and leaves the body naturally. The weight-loss market is, pun perhaps intended, huge. Recent years have seen the advancement of dieting drugs, but many of these include painful injections and a whole

PCOS Hair Loss
My daughter has been diagnosed with PCOS and takes Spironolactone and Yacdlla (combined pill). She had to stop Metformin as it didn’t agree with her. we have noticed that when she has 7 days of off Yacdlla she sheds more hair. I know that if you permanently stop the pill you get shedding but we didn

Pelvic and Endo update
So, as I mentioned in the past, I have been undergoing multiple scans, different hormonal contraceptives etc to help with my heavy bleeding, pains etc. Before they used to say it might be Pelvic inflammatory dease as to why I was on them, they also keep seeing this cyst on my left side which either grows

Dienogest
Hello my loves- I’m writing this to anyone that might be able to shed light on their experiences in Dienogest. My gynae dr moved me from Cerelle contraception to Dienogest as that apparently prevents the growth of endometriosis… I had my laparoscopy surgery in Nov 2021 which confirmed what I said all

PCOS and insulin resistance
I currently have the
contraceptive
implant
which shes recommended I have removed and begin taking Marvelon to help with hair growth. But what about the increased hba1c? I'm literally terrified of becoming diabetic. It makes me so anxious. Hence being up at 5.30am writing this.

Coming off the pill and periods
Hello everyone. I have decided to come off the pill but I'm unsure how to calculate when my first period will be. Do I count my cycle length from the day I stop taking the pill or the first day of my withdrawal bleed? I know it is unlikely to be exact as it takes the body a while to get back into a normal

Missed a dose
Hi I missed a dose on Friday, I normally leave it by my bed and take it 30 mins before actually getting up but I thought I had taken it but found the pill on floor today. So it's 100mg dose I missed. Will this be a problem? Will I get side effects from this?

Ultrasounds/MRIs - My experience and why you need to advocate for yourself if they don’t show Endo!
Controversial take here on ultrasounds and MRIs, but I responded to another users query with the below info, and wanted to share it more widely as I think more people need to challenge their doctors when they are told the scans didn't show anything but you are still in pain. I was diagnosed with severe

Does the pill have the same effect as the injection?
I am from Argentina. My son has been struggling with depression and anxiety for years. 2 years ago we found out he had high homocysteine, low B12 and he has MTHFR. He is being treated with B12 pills (Jarrow) his values have improved but his symptoms persist. I saw your information in PERNICIOUS

Taking Flecainide with Bisoprolol
When I was first diagnosed with AF a few years ago I was told to use the "pill in the pocket" approach to terminate an episode by using bisoprolol and flecainide - the flecainide 20 minutes after the bisoprolol. Now, for the last year I've been on bisoprolol 1.25mg daily and just take the occasional
