[quote=Anonymous]I’m almost 50 and was prescribed a BCP I was on in younger years to help with symptoms (mood, sleep, fatigue, pretty intense breast and pelvic soreness, muscle aches, some vestibular issues but no hot flashes, hair issues). Unfortunately over the time I was on the pill - about 6 months - while everything got better, I developed intense back of the head headaches coinciding with my period. Gyn is regarded as a menopause expert, feared stroke risk, advised me to stop taking anything, and clocking symptoms again. I’ve been off the pill for nearly 2 months and while the headaches went away, which is great, all prior symptoms returned. Has anyone experienced this? I plan to ask for an estrogen patch and progesterone pill plan. I feel miserable and just wanted to see what others have experienced in finding some solutions to symptoms that make you feel bad, thanks. [/quote]
