Bad Skin, Low Sex Drive...! Posted: 02-01-06 11:41am
Help! :cry:
i have switched pills, I used to be on
dianette, now i'm on mycrogynon 30, have
been on it for over a year. But I have
had enough, my skin is bad and I have the
lowest sex drive ever!
Could it be the pill? Or am I just so
unlucky?
My gp doesn't seem to be interested when I
enquire and to be honest I feel a little
intimidated by him which doesn't help.
So you, guys , are the only help I have!
Help me please!

Perhaps you should seek a female gp, and
yes I think switching pills would help.
Triphasic pills seem to be better for
women as far as their skin health (acne),
and some women find their sex drive
improve too. In the us we have ortho tri
cyclen, which many women find to be
excellent in clearing the skin.
Definately give a new pill a try, there
are many out there that may be a better
match.

Hi! Maybe switching to a lower dose
hormone pill will help you out. Ortho tri
cyclen lo is a 25 pill which, yours is a
30, so maybe that will make you feel a
little better. I was on it for about 7
months, but I take it to help ease period
pain and the dosage wasn't enough for me
so I switched to seasonale. My skin
actually had less break outs when I was on
the ortho so I am hoping it may help you!
Good luck!
