Hi ladies,
My GP has prescribed fluoxetine/prozac to try to help with my PMDD.
I am really anxious about the side effects though. Just wanted to gauge what others may have experienced?

I'm 45, and for the last two years, I've been experiencing surges of anxiety, cramping, and a general feeling of illness during ovulation. Today, I woke up and shortly after felt a feeling of dread and fear, similar to a panic attack. I've been pelvic cramping all day, and not just a twinge in my ovary like mittelschmerz. I had a pelvic ultrasound two weeks ago and it was all normal. I don't know what hormone is causing this, but I wish doctors would test for it to determine the best course of… read more

For some reason, even tho I’m on the birth control Seasonale where I get a period once every 3 months, I still struggle with ovulation pain and PMDD including bloating, pain, PANIC ATTACKS AND ANXIETY (these are probably the worst), exhaustion and even chin/jaw breakouts.

I'm trying to determine if its the medication or if it's me.

Hi all, I’ve recently come off the pill just two and a half weeks a go (I was taking it alongside the jaydess coil) and I’ve noticed I’ve become REALLY emotional and things are getting to me way more than usual. I came off it because it didn’t help my pain, if anything it made it feel worse for me. I’ve had some really large mood swings where I’m irritable and then emotional. Was just wondering if anyone else has experienced anything similar? I’ve had a pretty rough couple of weeks, I returned… read more

I have been experiencing a twinging pain on my right groin area since my cycle ended last week and now I have stabbing pain in my right —well my right butt cheek 😞. I tried doing deep stretches and focus on stretching the muscles in my bottom. Any ideas for better stretches than just twist lunges? (I have two questions actually).

Hi Ladies,

Quick question, I've been on a few different contraceptive pills over the years and after my Lap this year my surgeon put me on Visanne.

I immediately began to get suicidal thoughts and went to my GP and went off it as soon as I noticed these thoughts starting to appear and I went back to feeling fine. Recently the pill I was on began giving me really awful headaches so my surgeon suggested trying visanne with a hormone patch for three weeks to slowly transition from a combined… read more
