Just Stopped bc. hurting and confused
A little background
23 yr old
Arthritis
And anemic
Naturally high ph
Anemic and migraine genetics
I have been on bc for three years up until this past month. Mother Nature has been very cruel to me since starting at 14. From the beginning an extreme flow. Every month I usually ended up in the fetal position either missing days of school and eventually missing work. My first ovarian cyst occurred my sophomore year of high school after which I was diagnosed with pcos. Upon my 21st birthday I decided bc was the best option to helping manage the pain. It started off good till an injury that left me with arthritis and immobile for 3 months. Because of the bc I was unable to take off the weight gain. I have also had to change prescriptions each year due to my body adjusting. After not being able to take off the weight, no prescription lasting, and depression from hormone changes I've decided to go off of it. In the last week alone I've been experiencing pain all over, face breaking out and scaring, and dark stretch marks appearing out of nowhere..... has anyone else experienced this? I'm very confused and can't get an appointment with my obgyn till after New Year.
