Has anyone else noticed their hair texture changing while on these pills? Mine feels much flatter, and it seems to have thinned out quite a bit. 😢
I know the literature lists this as a potential symptom, but I can't help but wonder how it happens when my hormone levels are perfectly balanced. 🤷
Hello everyone!
So, here is my situation... I’ve cracked a front tooth, 😢 about a quarter of it is gone. The tooth has been lacking a nerve for quite some time, and just six months ago, I had it whitened specifically because the old filling was looking dark. Now, from a minor bump, it has finally snapped.
What should my next move be? How can I resolve this as quickly as possible? Honestly, I feel so self-conscious walking around like this. 😢
At a clinic near downtown, they suggested two options—a ceramic crown or some other alternative. However, since I am turning 22 tomorrow (and what a way to celebrate 🙄), nothing is covered by my insurance, so the cost there isn't any cheaper than going to a private dentist anyway ($567 a ceramic one would take them two weeks to make).
Does ANYONE know a dentist who can handle this in the SHORTEST TIME POSSIBLE??? 🙏🙏🙏
Is Jeanine unavailable here in the States? It seems to have a similarly low dosage compared to Yasmin, which didn't work well for me—though I'm honestly not sure if I should blame them for my hair thinning. I've been reading about Jeanine online, and apparently, it's quite popular on forums in neighboring countries where they use it quite a bit. Do you think a local pharmacy could special order those pills if my gynecologist writes a prescription for them? Or, if they aren't officially on our market, would my doctor even be allowed to prescribe them?
Has anyone else noticed their hair thinning specifically while on birth control? I’m honestly at a loss. I’ve double-checked everything and my routine is fine; the only variable is the pills, which feels illogical because my hair was actually thick and healthy when my testosterone levels were high, but now...
My gynecologist just put me on a three-month break from the medication to get an accurate reading of my hormone levels. Does that actually make sense? I'd love to hear from anyone who has been through this.
Previously, I was on Diane-35 and took a six-month break after he mentioned my levels were returning to their old state—likely PCOS, though he never gave me a definitive diagnosis—so he switched me over to Yasmin.
Please, if anyone has advice, I’m feeling quite lost on what to do next.
Should I perhaps seek a second opinion from another specialist?

I actually spotted some at Deichmann priced around $10 for those wool ones, if you're interested.

It would be great if they weren't the sheer nylon kind...
I actually found a pair at the local marketplace for $6.75... honestly, I think you'll have the best luck finding them there. The cotton ones are wonderful.
