Experiences with

Femodette

hello I am wondering if I am experiencing severe dry skin (only on the face) due to my contraceptive pill. 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 am otherwise healthy (optimal thyroid, but

Now I've been prescribed to go back to Femodette again. 

I am concerned how the pain is getting worse as I went on to have a total hysterectomy with my initial surgeon in April he put me on oestrogen only hrt after however I have still been adding my Femodette pill in to endure I had progesterone.

I'm nearly 44 and was diagnosed with early menopause at 41. 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

Hi FPA, I need advice on what pill to take if you can give me some please? 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. Am I

Hi all, I hope your weekends are going well! I was diagnosed via laparoscopy in October last year and was due to have further lap to remove the endo from bowel and bladder in April but it got delayed due to Covid. Haven’t heard anything about reschedule yet. I was told at diagnosis that I have a rectovaginal

So a couple days ago I went to go see my GP to update her on what a gynaecologist had said about me having IBS and not endo. She was horrified at the things he said about trying a diet and more exercise even though I had mentioned it caused me extreme pain. She is almost 100% convinced I have endometriosis

Hi ladies! Does anyone use Femodene or ANY other combined pill to shrink stage IV of endometriosis? My gyne wants me to change from Visanne (dienogest 2 mg) because he thinks its dosage is too low to this combined pill but I'm not convinced also because I read it caused many women's death in the past

When I took Femodette I didn't bleed but I felt so sick for about six weeks and and was sick a few times plus I could have killed someone I was so moody! Has anyone else had similar problems? Any recommendations of what else to try?

It's been ten years since I stopped using systemic birth control after femodette almost drove me to commit suicide. I have bipolar 2 which is under control these days and I seriously fear that any hormonal treatment will really set me back.

hi all, Ioestrin 30 has been the pill Ive always been on (12+ years ) other than trying one other pill after the birth of my daughter (femodette) which really didn't agree with me so i went back onto loestrin 30 but I've struggled to get hold of it over the last 6 months and now cant get a hold of it

Fast forward about three years (16) and I begin taking all sorts of contraceptive pills all for three-six month intervals: Femodette, Regividon, Necraz and Cerazette. No sign of improvement on the regularity or heaviness.

Is it worth while sticking it out, not sure if I can handle weeks or even months feeling so horrid all the time 🤢 Pill I'm trying is Femodette. Any advice?

I am currently on the pill (femodette) and I really struggle with periods, I end up really run down, low in mood, my bowels which are awful get even worse, I get migraines- you get the gist. My GP advised to take the pill three months at a pop and then have a break.

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

Hi everyone, I haven’t spoken to any other sufferers about this before so please bear with me! About 10 years ago I started to get awful abdominal pain, cramps, passing out, sweating, shivering etc. I was referred to my local hospital who said that it might be endometriosis but that I would only get

Hello everyone! This is my first post so I'm a little nervous here but I was wondering if anybody could help me out. I've been taking the pill on and off for a couple of years now (I've been through 4 different brands) so I'm pretty familiar with the Ins and Outs of how to take it and how to make it

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.

Since starting on Femodette 5 years ago my life has been completely different and the endometriosis has not caused any further problems.

We are going back to see the consultant in two days, as her pain has not reduced in the last two months since starting femodette and I am at my wits end. The consultant said it would take time - but this is right??
