Something in hormonal BC, even progestin-only methods makes me flare. Whenever I try using any kind of HBC I have temperature, heart rhythm (tachycardia, worsened pre existing arrhythmia) and blood pressure regulation issues, fainting, tinnitus, sweating, involuntary muscle movements (like twitching and sometimes jerking). I also get blurred vision only on my right eye and skin reactions like hives and rashes. After quitting it, it takes a few days to weeks to feel better again, it depends on how many pills I took. They already tried putting me on the patch which they claimed to have “less impact on the liver” and then maybe it wouldn’t affect me so much but I had the same reaction. Anyone ever been through this? Obviously doctors don’t believe me, say “there’s no correlation”, “nothing like this was ever described in medical literature” etc. Ended up getting a copper IUD which is my only option besides condoms and I’m happy with the contraception but not satisfied with my periods and PMS.
