Vaginal bleeding wihile taking Garcinia Cambogia

Was on garcinia cambogia for one month , (60%HCA and potassium only) spotting started within week off and on , gained weight , felt bloated. , good mood sometimes and reavenous the first week. took some green coffee with one pill and appetite surpressed , but bloating and weight gain increased.  Stopped taking and the spotting stopped, bloating has subsided.  not sure I will try again 

I really wonder if breakthrough bleeding is due to the garcinia cambogia. I took only one pill and and I am on BC but I started having spotting and cramps the next morning. Contributed it to just BC breakthrough but wasnt normal for me so then I thought of the garcinia I just started and looked for possibility online and couldn't find anything till this forum. But had taken the garcinia once today b4 I found forum now I am upset I took the pill today. Gonnastop taking garcinia and see what happens. Could bleeding really be from garcinia Cambodia?

Wow. So glad i found this. Started GC last week. My hubby and i had sex last night and the first time ever, i bled!! Definitely weird!

I had the same spotting happen the week I started garcinia Cambogia in the middle of my cycle. I have NEVER had spotting before so I am guessing that it is the cause

Me too! I totally think its from the GC cuz I have never ever had that problem and I just started the GC less than a week ago

Well it certainly seems some women experience bleeding or spotting between periods when taking GC , as have I it stopped after I quit taking the GC , it seems that it also actually increases weight in some of us,

I been taking garcinia cambogia after a period last month and now this month my period has not came. I have token several pregnancy test . all neg. but its going on 2 weeks of no period now. I quit the garcinia a week ago to see if my period will ome but still nothing. im freaking out. am I pregnant or is it garcinia cambogia. ugggggg

All...same break through bleeding for me too now that I am 2 weeks into the product. I thought it strange and am glad I researched And read your posts. I will stop taking the product right away and go back to good ole fashioned hard work and less calories. Thanks to all who shared!!!

I am so glad to hear other women are going through this, except... I've only been taking this product for a few days and already have a concerning brown discharge. I will be stopping my dosage asap and hopefully the problem goes away!

I was CG for a few months from one dose then last month switched to I higher dose, because I was told the lower dose wasn't right so I switched. Then has my period for about 3 days then it stopped then less than a wk later spotted. I strated researching and found all these posts then I stopped. Then almost 3 wks later which is currently I got my period which is about the right cycle I was supposed to get it, but heavy. While I was doing this I was working out. I haven't taking the CG in about 2 wks. So my daughter told me to not take it anymore and start drinking at least 4 cups of green tea a day and am trying to drink 2 liters of water a day as well. Trying to find out how long it takes to cleanse my body from the CG. Hope I didn't confuse you.

I'm glad I found this post! I finished my period two weeks ago, started Garcinia Cambogia the other day, and had some spotting today. From the research I've done so far, it usually delays women's periods, however apparently for some of us it starts it sooner. I don't know whether to continue to take it or just stop altogether...

Hi, I'm glad I found these posts.  I'm at least 5 years postmenopausal, but have had several instances of spotting and cramping over the past month and began using GC in late Nov/early Dec. 2013.  I'm not going to use it anymore.  Have to go for a workup now about this.  I did lose about 12 lbs. though, but have many more to go, the old fashioned way, I guess. 

I experienced the same last year. Unfortunately, I lost a lot of hair due to so much blood loss. Damn!

Noting all these posts, it seems 'breakthrough bleeding' should definitely be listed among the potential side effects of Garcinia Cambogia. I experienced breakthrough bleeding years ago when taking Ginkgo Biloba, so I began to suspect Garcinia as the culprit (this time) rather quickly. I have been taking it about 3 weeks and had just increased the dosage when 'the breakthrough' began for me as well. Thank you to all the ladies who posted their reaction/side effect(s)...it helps to confirm my suspicion and put my mind at ease.

I took my first, and only one, GC pill yesterday afternoon, and today I have breakthrough bleeding. I took another one today, and the bleeding just got worse. Of course, I find this forum after I took the 2nd pill, but I will not be taking anymore ever again after reading these posts.
