    Hi , yes I was on birth control for a while. It wasn't the mini pill but a low dose birth control pill. My dr said it would help with the symptoms and for the most part it did. I went off it and now having all sorts of gut issues and anxiety and all these other things going on which is driving me nuts. I wish I didn't stop it as i i didn't have half the stuff im having now.

      Hi , it was Truiqualar Ed , it is a low dose estrogen and progesterone. It helped with alot of the issues . I have stopped it for over a yr now so don't think I can go back on it. But since then I am getting so many strange issues.
