Will do, thanks.🙂
Regarding the bloating, I don't think it's my diet—I've eaten pretty healthy for years—so I honestly feel like this started once I began the pills.👎
I've decided to just quit them on my own, I guess. If my cycle stays normal through the summer, then great! As for my boyfriend, I'll see what he has to say after our summer vacation.😁
Hey there,
I've been on hormone replacement therapy for four years straight now—spent a year on Yaz and then three years on Lyndinette 20.
My OB-GYN originally put me on them mainly because my periods were incredibly heavy and painful. Honestly, regarding that specific issue, they've been perfect since I started—about four days long, totally normal, and zero pain.
But everything else? It’s just... meh. I feel constantly bloated, like I'm retaining water, dealing with cellulite, and my libido is basically non-existent...
I actually just finished my current pack. I really should head back to the gynecologist for a check-up, but their next available opening isn't until after the New Year. So, I'm thinking about just stopping them on my own for maybe six months or so, just to see if I can "deflate" a bit.
I was wondering, if anyone here has dealt with this, will my period go back to how it used to be?
