Experiences with

Femodene

I take femodene and have done for years. Over the last 5 my skin has gotten significantly drier and flares up badly, red, itchy, intense dryness.

I was on Femodene for 2 years (from 41-43) but started to have serious side effects so switched to HRT. I am now on Oestrogel pump gel and Utrogestan pill 14 days on/off which gives me a monthly bleed. I feel like a new person on HRT but I'm worried about falling pregnant (which I don't want).

hello! I'm hoping for advice. I'm 25, I've been diagnosed with stage 1 endometriosis and got a laparoscopy 8 days ago, where they removed endo implants from the back of the uterus. My doubt is about birth control. Now I've been prescribed to go back to Femodette again. I took femodette

Hi, I have had multiple surgeries for endometriosis however my diagnostic lap was not done by an endo specialist so I am worried that he didn’t check the main area where my pain is upper right quadrant of abdomen. He did remove endo from my pelvis and ligaments then referred me to endo specialist for

I am currently on Femodene, which has 28.6 of oestrogen in it, am I correct in thinking this is the female hormone? I am really struggling on this pill at the moment with really bad mood swings / depression and bad skin.

She has also put me on Femodene birth control as I have been struggling to find a pill that works for me. She said that if this pill works it’ll be another indication of endometriosis. Has anyone else been on this pill and has it helped?

Despite this, having now gone on to Femodene, my symptoms are under control. However, I’d say for the past 3 weeks I have been struggling to go to the toilet.

Does anyone use Femodene or ANY other combined pill to shrink stage IV of endometriosis?

I made the tough decision to stop trying for a baby and go back on the pill as I couldn't stand my monthly endo pain anymore. However the pill I was given, Gedarel, is making me bleed all the time, there's no pain but it's a pretty crappy side effect. Microgynon did the same. When I took Femodette I

Hello all! I am a new member but I have been reading up on various posts before I decided to join officially. I received a diagnosis for endometriosis on Thursday this week. This came about after having years of generalised seemingly unrelated symptoms, including unusually painful periods, severe ibs

Hi all, Long and complicated story about diagnosis and an operation but basically I don’t think it helped. I have cerebral palsy and have had since birth but what I didn’t see coming was when I started off with heavy periods from the age of 13 and my GP started me on Mefanamic Acid which didn’t help

Quick intro; endo and adhesions on appendix, ovaries, p.o.d, bladder and uterus. After years of just pain management due to ttc, which resulted in a beautiful IVF baby boy, I've decided to try the pill to hopefully avoid periods all together. I'm reluctant to go down this route as when I took the pill

After a few more years I also started taking contraceptive pill Femodene which really seemed to help. However 2 years ago I started getting migraines and was immediately taken off of the Femodene and the pain has come back ten fold. It is like clockwork every month 7-8 days after ovulation.

Hi just had my lap found endo and have been put on the femodette pill I am not keen on taking it. Is anyone on it that can tell me what their experience with it is? Thank you x

My question is, if i begin my pill (Cilest) on the first day I'm due to take my next pill of Femodene will I be immediately covered?

Chemotherapy treatments can cause your skin to be more sensitive to the sun that usual. Please take care. Nearly any chemotherapy agent (or non-cancer-related medications as well) may cause you to be more sensitive to the sun. It’s important to talk with your oncologist about your particular medications

Hi Has anybody tried these tablets as painkiller and anti inflammatory? They are quite strong - 20 mg sublingual Also licodeine patches?

After trying Femodette and it not working (2 wks of breakthrough bleeding) Lucy has now been put on Yasmin, however she has now started vomiting due to the pain. Today, after a 4 month wait, we have seen the consultant, who in January suggested she would put her on the list for a laproscopy....however

Hello lovely ladies. Just wanting a little bit of advice please :) Background: Painful heavy periods from the get go, officially diagnosed with endometriosis via laparoscopy in January 2011. Had struggled to find effective pain management (Tranexamic Acid did wonders for the heavy bleeding but Mefanamic

I am writing this as a mum trying desperately to support my 14 year old daughter who has suspected endometriosis. She has had horrendous periods from day 1 and has tried mefenamic acid, tranexamic acid to reduce flow/clots along with accupuncture before being put on Rigevidon. Her pain since going
