Anxiety :: Medication Interference With Contraceptive Pills?
May 14, 2014
I could really use some advice as soon as possible. I've recently started going to therapy, and for whatever reason I seem to be getting worse. I have generalised anxiety, kinda severe ocd and mild depression.
I'm now considering meds as I can't seem to cope and I'm terrified almost all the time.
But I'm also on a contraceptive pill called microlite and I've heard some meds can stop the pill working right. I'm scared of unplanned pregnancy so I'd really appreciate advise from anyone who's on meds who could advise me what to take?
Obviously I'll talk to my doctor but she's a little old fashioned and I worry she might prescribe the wrong thing.

I had laser surgery on my eyes eighteen months ago and at the same time stopped taking the contraceptive pill.
Since then every month I seem to get at least one stye.
Is this connected to hormones or the laser surgery?
What do you recommend as treatment?

I have taken an emergency contraceptive within 48 hours, I also take an oral contraceptive, how long until I should start the oral contraceptive again? And if I can start right away would it effect the bleeding which usually occurs as it is a sign (apparently) that it has worked?

I was diagnosed with PCOS via ultrasound. I had severe acne, irregular periods and STRONG cravings for particular foods. I also found i became depressed.
Is there much treatment out there? My dr said that only healthy eating and exercise can help - which obviously i try do on a day to day basis generally.

Could anyone tell me what the best medication and treatment is for LPR? And how long after does it take to settle?
I am 99% sure I have LPR.
ENT confirmed with a nose scope yesterday the posterior part of my larynx was swollen due to reflux.
I have read up on LPR and this would explain my breathing difficulty, waking up choking, rare heart burn and acid, difficulty swallowing, frequent laryngitis, constant throat clearing, waking up with a sore throat, sore ears inside, swollen lymph nodes, swollen glands etc.
I am a little more positive than I was just a bit worried incase this is it for life

A little over 3 weeks ago I was treated intravenously with Levaquin for pneumonia. About 20 minutes into the drip I started to get large hives! This has been going on for over 3 weeks now. The hives are not nearly as bad as they were but I'm still getting them. I was taking benadryl at first but was then switched to Allegra. I stopped taking it 2 days ago to see if the hives have subsided. For the most part they are not as bad but now anytime my skin gets warm I have a breakout. Needless to say I'm not getting much sleep bc I keep waking up to hives and have to sleep in a cool room so I don't get too hot. Very frustrating!! Anyone ever have this happen? How long did it take for the hives to go away?

I don't know much about which brand of oral contraceptive I should use, partly due to nurses at planned parenthood not being very informative. Since there are many MANY different brands I figured I would just shout out my ultimate dream pill and see what suggestions you guys can give me. I want a pill that won't lower my libido and increases breast size. Some have taken me from a b to a d, some only half a cup. Would love that extra boob again lol thanks guys!**also I tend to get a little emotional so I'm not too sure where to go from here.

Has anyone had a DNA test to determine the effectiveness of pain medication? I have chronic 24/7 migraines and take high doses of Dilaudid (16 mgs) every 3-4 hours. Even at this dosage the pain is only reduced to about a 6 on the pain scale. What were the findings from your test? Did it provide any useful information or was it a way for my pain management dr to pad his pockets? As it is I have to see him every 4 weeks and provide a urine sample every other month. After 4 years you would think he could rest assured that I am not taking more than prescribed. I'm just afraid he looks at me like a way to make more money. Any, I digress. Please let me know about the DNA testing.
