Dizziness
I started a new birth control pill a few weeks ago, and one side effect im noticing is i keep getting dizzy spells (sometimes while driving) but i used to get the same thing happening when my anxiety was really bad. Just wondering if any of you have dealt with this kind of dizziness from either anxiety or the pill
My bf's friend was over and talking to me about when he quit smoking...said he got dizzy all the time, especially when driving, felt like an anxiety type thing. So who knows what is actually causing… read more

Can You Take Spironolactone And Still Get Pregnant Or Should You Wait Until Your Periods Are Regular ?

Excessive Facial Hair And Treatments?
Since being diagnosed with PCOS, I have experienced excessive facial hair under and around my chin/neck area. I have to shave every day and sometimes 2x in a day. Anyone have any suggestions or recommendations on this??
I can’t afford laser, but with the metformin I have seen that it’s growing a lot slower! Thank God!
Any Advice On Dealing With Dark Underarms?
I've always be self conscious of my dark underarms. I wax them which helps with the darkness a little bit but not enough for me to feel completely comfortable wearing anything sleeveless. Any advice on how to lighten them? (preferably naturally)
I thougt it might have just been the brand so I’ve tried some others and the same brands with baking soda free version djdnt do it so I just attributed it to the baking soda but maybe thats not it.

Hair Loss?
I was diagnosed with PCOS back in 2007 when I was only 13 and for the past year I have noticed that my hair is thinning a lot. Has this happen to anytime else? If so, how do I stop it?
I took Spironolactone in my late 20's to 30's. I stopped using it, but I don't remember why. It did help my hair grow though. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
