I’ve been taking Yasmin for years and stoped 3 months ago. I read stopping the pill often lead to weight loss
Once I stopped I gained half a stone / 7 pounds in 4 weeks and can’t shift it
I was only 9 stone before and am 5ft7 so it feels like a substantial gain and none of my jeans fit. My diet and exercise levels haven’t changed either

Has anyone else experienced this and if so did it plateau and come off or did you get stuck with the extra weight? I don’t eat a lot anyway and have a healthy diet so to start dieting would be very restrictive!

I have had lip filler for over 10 years and felt it needed dissolving and redoing, after consultation my aesthetic nurse agrees.
I know you need to wait two weeks before the filler reapplied.
I’m nervous to be honest!
Has anyone else gone through this process and how was your experience?

I am a naturally anxious, easily stressed person. I have a stressful job and want to try for a baby soon too. I know how my baseline stress levels are , it’s probably going to be difficult to conceive. And aside from that I really want to be able to unwind and be a bit more chilled than I am currently!
I eat well, run often, don’t smoke and drink a couple of wines a night.
Any suggestions to destress / unwind that genuinely work for people?

Thanks

I came off of a COCP last month as me and my partner want to try for a baby.

I am 33 and have been on the pill most my adult life, what are people experiences of coming off it? I have heard such a mixed bag. and when did peoples periods return?
