Hello,
I have a very annoying problem that is inhibiting other parts of my life, which I would rather not go into. I have been on this birth control for quite awhile named cryselle. Now, I was specifically put on this birth control, because about a year ago I had to get emergency surgery done in the E.R. It was nothing too serious, but I was in severe pain, the WORST pain I have ever felt, and it ended up that my uterus was filled with blood clots. How this happened? I have no clue, but they had to do a D&C.
Now, to the hot flash issue. So I was put on this cryselle to thin the lining of my uterus during my period to prevent this from happening again. About two or three days after I stop the pill I start getting really bad hot flashes and cold flashes. It last until about two or three days after I start up the pill again. It is fregon HORRIBLE. My whole body feels like its covered in a layer of sweat, and I want to rip my clothes off. Then I am freezing, I just feel like I cannot regulate my body temperature.
I remember having this issue in the past with a different birth control. In fact I got my hormones tested, but at the time I hadnt been taking birth control for quite awhile, and everything was fine. I am just so frustrated, it reminds me of being in opiate withdrawals (minus the puking and the inability to control other body functions) and I just want to curl up in bed and be knocked out till it ends. My question is what can i do? Do you think I could just go off my birth control all together, or is it not safe? I am just so frustrated that I have to live like this, its like I am constantly looking at my birth control getting anxious thinking, oh its getting close to the end and i am gonna feel like S*** again, lol.
Thank you in advance for your reply's and taking the time to read this long message.
