Please Help Bc Side Effects !!!!!! Posted: 08-09-06 20:27pm
I started taking orthro tri cyclen the
middle of may (first time ever took bc)
and stopped after one month (so middle of
june). I was a full c cup when I
started taking it and my boobs did not
grow any during the short time I took it,
however after I stopped my boobs shrank
and I have heard this happening to girls
whose boobs grew while they took it but
not if they didnt?? My boobs turned to
water, they seriously feel like nothing is
in them and they are a small small b I
went and bought new bras and everything
and now even those wont fit on some days.
It is the worse when I just get off my
period my boobs practically vanish !!!!!
Do any of you know why this is happening
and if it will eventually stop?? Also
my hair has been falling out ever since I
stopped taking birth control and it has
gotten to the point where my hair is about
half as thick as it used to so I went and
bought $50 shampoo that is suppose to help
keep it from falling out?? Taking birth
control was the stupidest thing for me to
do it seems like now but I was just hoping
someone could explain this to me and maybe
tell me that things will eventually go
back to normal?????

Hair falling is associated with taking or
stopping birth control but I don't know
about shrinking boobs after you stopped
taking it..Well here's just my theory..I'm
not sure though..Since estrogen is the
hormone responsible for female features
including boobs..I think that when you
stopped taking bc...Your body somehow
stopped producing some estrogen..Or you
got thinner! Since boobs are made out of
mostly adipose tissue (which is fat cells)
when you get thinner it shrank together
with you...Are you going to the gym or
something?

Yeah that would make sense, but im not
loosing weight and I do go to the gym but
I have been a runner for years and have
actually put on weight this summer but
maybe like 3 lbs so I dont think weight
has to do with it
