Hi everyone. I'm new here. And I just feel the need to rant...

Anyone else out there feel really cursed because their periods always seem to come or fall on major holidays? I am. I hate it. It ALWAYS comes on holidays. Grrr.

Ok. Done now. Thanks!

BC Withdrawal Questions

[aphoenixrain.livejournal.com]

I've got a few questions I hope someone will be able to help me out with, or, at the least, let me know that I'm not alone. :-)

I've been regularly on the pill for the better part of 5 years. I've been off for two months and have been noticing some things about myself that have changed and I'm wondering whether or not it can be attributed to my body having become so used to the regular influx of estrogen I was getting while on the pill.

#1 - Ever since I had my first period off the pill I've been plain horny. My sex drive has been in overdrive on the NASCAR circuit. I have never been this sexually frustrated/energized before in my life.

#2 - While on the pill, I noticed that I got more emotional while I was PMSing. It was only for a day or two the week before. That never really happened before the pill. Now that I'm off I am also increasingly moody. I can't keep a steady emotional keel on *anything*. I'm unusually short with people (totally not characteristic of me *whatsoever*) and more emotional than usual.

Anyone else had similar reactions after going off the pill? I'd love to hear ...

hi, i have a question, duh. ok well here is a short blurb about my cycle and where i am at.
http://www.livejournal.com/talkread.bml?journal=bloodyecstatic&itemid=6318&nc=6

basically, my periods are really irregular and i want to get some bc or maybe something else, possibly herbal to regulate my periods. i have a doctors appointment on friday, to my clinic that basically just does a routine check up on me for my epilepsy since i am on meds so its a neurology clinic section of a hospital. so i will talk to the nurse or dr that sees me. i was just wondering what they can prescibe to regulate my cycle if anything at all. do i need to go to a gyno for this? yes. i am trying to avoid it. *smirks*
thanks.
