Stoping Taking Lo Loestrin Fe Side Effects

My doctor put me on lo loestin fe to regulate my cycle and help with bad cramping...in the 1st week i experienced extreme nausea,fatigue mood swings and gained 8 pounds! I am standing up in a wedding on the 14th of September and was concerned at the rate I was going I would not fit into the dress so i asked if i should stop and start up after the wedding. She said it would be okay since i only took it for a week and it would be out of my system rather quickly. Just today I have been jumpy, anxious, extremely hungry, having a pounding headache and very emotional. Is this the side effects of the synthetic hormones leaving my body? anything i can do? i am trying to cope.

Judging from the side effects, it does sound like your hormones are unbalanced from taking the Loestrin Fe.

If you're for something that doesn't have the side effects of prescription drugs, then the best thing I can recommend trying is Clary Sage Essential Oil.

Clary sage is loaded with natural chemicals that the human body can easily modify to produce hormones. It supports hormone balance and for many women it relieves menstrual pain, PMS, and soreness as well as regulating timing and flow of otherwise irregular periods.

I hope this helps!
