So, here’s the thing... I’ve got a little situation going on. My period wrapped up about two days ago, but since yesterday evening, I’ve been dealing with this sharp pain strictly on my left ovary side. It honestly feels like someone is taking a hammer to it, you know? Could this actually be ovulation? Just for context, I’m currently taking Glucofarm and Diane.
So, I’ve got this little situation going on... I had my period from November 21st through the 29th, but now this brownish discharge has suddenly shown up. It looks kind of like chocolate color, and honestly, it's been happening for a few days already. Just to give some context, I’m currently on Diane and dealing with PCOS. I actually went to schedule an appointment with my gynecologist today, but I ended up missing it because this whole discharge thing happened out of nowhere.
So, I took my first pill on October 25th, and kept going until November 14th. Then I had a one-day break on the 15th, which lasted through to today... and then this morning, my period arrived. So, we're looking at day seven right now. Should I maybe start taking them again starting today on day seven?
Hey, hey... okay, so some good news today! It finally arrived this morning! Honestly though, my stomach is absolutely killing me right now. Ugh. But hey, at least the main thing is that it’s here, you know? Everything's on track.
So, I’m not saying I’m 100% pregnant or anything since I don't even have a boyfriend right now, haha, but my cycle finally started on October 25th... so it was about a 21-day thing. I’ve actually been on birth control before, but I had to quit because of the blood pressure issues and the sugar spikes. Anyway, I decided to start back up again after my gynecologist over at the Mayo Clinic recommended it. The last time I had my blood work done—back in May with an endocrinologist—my LH, testosterone, and androsterone levels were all running pretty high. But honestly? I handled the Diane-35 super well.
The thing is, I’ve taken these pills before and they always worked for me without any issues. I'm going to hold out until Friday, though. If nothing happens by then, I'll just reach out to my doctor. Today is already day five of my break, so we'll see, right?
So, here’s the deal with my Diane usage... I started back on October 25th, and my last pill was on November 14th. My break officially kicked in on November 15th. Based on that, I was totally expecting my period to show up yesterday, but nothing yet. I mean, I’ve got until Friday before I really need to start worrying, right? But if it doesn't happen, what else could be going on? We can definitely rule out pregnancy, so... could it just be some kind of inflammation or something?
So, I've got an appointment at Mayo Clinic this coming Monday. My gynecologist actually referred me specifically to Dr. Pavicic, so I was wondering if anyone here has seen her before? Also, does anyone know if she focuses strictly on gynecology or if she's more of an endocrinologist?
Hey there, I've got an appointment scheduled with Dr. Pavicic over at Peterson on October 13th. I was just wondering if anyone here has seen her before? Would love to hear about your experiences,
Honestly, what’s really getting to me is that I dealt with HPV and CIN issues about three or four years ago, and now I'm just constantly terrified it might all come back... especially since my immune system has been feeling pretty run down lately.
I’m not sure if there’s already a thread for this, but does anyone have recommendations for vitamins to help boost the immune system? Because, of course, my herpes decided to show up again today in the exact same spot where it popped up last time. It was only about a month ago, too. As soon as I felt that familiar tingle, I grabbed the HerpleX and applied it right away.
