Well... let's see if anyone here can help us clear this mess out.
First I should mentioned that my girlfriend was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries and did not get her period for over 18 months, which her MDs kept saying was normal(???!!!!) It was definitely not normal. I took her to an excellent OB/GYN and she did some tests on her and put her on loestrin fe with the 21 days of BC and 7 days of IRON tablets.
Her MD left the practice to teach... so she was left with no MD. In the meantime, About 2 years ago, my girlfriend started to experience heavy bloating, constant urinary tract infections, decreased interest in sex, soreness during sex, etc.
She went to see her MD and they kept telling her to use METRO GEL, I believe it's what it's called, and DIFLUCAN, etc. You name it, they gave it to her. She even got tested for ALL STDS and I did also to make sure I didn't have anything I would keep giving to her.
Anyway, her MD put her on YASMIN because he said it would help out with all these symptoms. Well her sexual appetite has diminished even more and now she has vaginal dryness.
The problem is that overall, this pill has done more good than it has done bad. But has anyone continued taking the pills but been treated for teh vaginal dryness?
Please get back to me.
Thanks!
