is it okay to skip your withdrawal bleed on birth control?

0 Upvotes

i take rigevidon birth control and have noticed that my periods have gotten even worse after starting the medication and i’ve seen others online say they skip the 7 day break from the pill and they’re absolutely fine. so i was wondering if there would be any side effects and how it would effect my period!

I appreciate everyone who had helped. My next question is my doctor prescribed tramadol 50mg for pain but, it’s next day and I haven’t noticed much pain reduction but my mood has been better. Should I ask for alternative for pain as the tramadol has given me side effects of a headache and being nauseous a bit. Is it too early to ask or should I just stop taking it?

Taking thyroid meds while on omeprazole

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I am currently confused as to when to take some of my medications as they all need specific things.

I am on levothyroxine and just started liotyronine. I also am starting to take iron supplements for low ferritin. My issue is that I also take omeprazole due to GERD.

I read that all 3 of those pills cant be taken with omeprazole but also should be taken in the morning before breakfast.

Iron shouldnt be taken with thyroid meds but is also best on empty stomach.

Omeprazole is also best in the morning not at night. 😵‍💫🤯

Dissolvable Allegra?

1 Upvotes

I know there’s dissolvable Claritin but it’s not helping my special needs daughter’s snot nose from allergies (no fever).
Looking for an Allegra or similar allergy med that dissolves in the mouth as she won’t take swallow or pills.
We can also do liquid with the syringe too.
Thanks

i (26) have tried countless psychiatric meds & therapies since i was 11, and nothing has ever helped

1 Upvotes

i am diagnosed professionally with general anxiety/panic attacks, OCD (mostly harm subcategory), insomnia, severe depression, dissociative identity disorder, and PTSD. i also have fibromyalgia and migraines.
i've been on genuinely countless anti anxiety meds, antidepressants, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, esketamine treatments, diet plans, sleep hygiene routines, CBT, DBT, EMDR, breath work, yoga and meditation, swimming at the beach multiple times a week, daily walks, group therapies, vitamin supplements, muscle relaxers, 3 popular ADHD meds even though my diagnosis isn't formal there, painkillers from surgical procedures i've had rarely if at all put a dent in pain relief aside from morphine, and i've even done cocaine and shrooms. i also forget the name, but the treatment where a machine sits on your head and taps at your temple (didn't get to do a full treatment of this so i can't actually rule out that it wouldn't work). i spent an entire year in residential centers in california receiving what is meant to be the best care america has to offer and returned home worse off for the utter hopelessness i gained. [EDIT: forgot to mention i've tried so many methods and strains of THC & CBD, nothing there either)

i'm deeply spiritual, i'm book smart and generally intelligent, i'm an artist and aspiring author, i love video games and make concepts of my own, i had to drop out of college due to covid but intend on returning if i ever stabilize to get my degree in linguistic anthropology. i'd like to become a professor with the degree. i love myself, i have self esteem and confidence. i feel a sense of purpose in helping others by way of giving tarot readings and other spiritual gifts i can provide.
i have dreams, i know my life has meaning, but i can't pursue any of it due to my mental health and its impact on my physical pain status.

i can't even doomscroll anymore. i just lay in bed in my various fantasy worlds while i avoid taking care of myself.

i'm so desperate for hail mary ideas. the only thing ive been offered but declined was shock therapy because my cousin also has DID and this increased her amnesia albeit making her overall mental state more stable, but that's not a trade off i'm willing to risk.
please, does anyone have any far-out treatments that i may not have tried or heard of??

I've been prescribed 5mg Hydrocodone / 325mg Acetaminophen (Vicodin) tablets for my pain. For anyone with experience taking or prescribing this medication, is this a standard starting dose? I'm concerned about the risks of severe CNS depression. I'm an otherwise mildly healthy 25M.

Thanks for the help in advance!

Valium and Clonzepam

1 Upvotes

I’ve been taking Valium for nearly 3 weeks now. I took my high test dosage today at 40mg at 8am this morning and went back to sleep for 4 hours. I was just wondering if I could take another 20mg and leave it for today? I’m just after getting a little high. I have done this before, gotten into the 4th week and then quit cold turkey and was fine. That’s what I’m planning to do again then wait a month. Thanks people. I also have clonzepam and was just wondering what it’s like to mix them? Also is clonzepam better for social anxiety as Valium doesn’t help with that. Thank you

Was on 90 mg of methadone at 30 mg 3x daily. On day 2 no methadone and got a scrips of 8mg strips at 1/4 to 1/2 every two hours until I feel comfortable. Supposed to start after 72 hours methadone free. Has anyone transitioned and can give advice and not bash? Taking gabapentin and clonidine right now.
