Weaning Off Angeliq

I've been on them for about four years, with no known side effects. However, my doctor told me to stop them now. I sometimes take one, every other day. He said to do this for a month, then quit altogether. Sometimes I'm skipping two days. This is my second week. I'm bleeding off and on. I've had a recurring headache for about three days and now nausea. I can't tell if I have a bug or if it's side effects. Certain smells are making my nausea worse, sort of like morning sickness felt many years ago. I'll be 64 in four months.

It could be due to withdrawal effects from tapering down off of it, hormonal medications are well known to cause such issues, according to the NIH.

However, given the bleeding at your age, you should have it checked out to be sure.

Are you on any other medications?
