Slynd put me in the ER
I’m on day 3 of the placebo pills after spotting for 12 days. I’ve had severe cramps since I woke up, like a constant cramp with random stabbing. Panadol and naprogesic didn’t even touch the pain.
It was so bad I went to urgent care and received a tramadol injection thankfully. I was bent over in pain in tears.
Im also using a 0.1 estrogen patch and hadn’t had a period in 50+ days so maybe that’s why the pain was so bad. I guess after this I will just try to take slynd continuously.
UPDATE: it looks like I’ve passed a decidual cast, no wonder I was in so much pain.

Has anyone else developed a complete intolerance to caffeine? Especially if you quit nicotine.
I have quit caffeine for over 6 months now. I tried to start having it again but every time I try I start to spiral mentally almost immediately. (This happens even from just coke or pepsi) I’m not sure if it’s because I quit nicotine (also 6 months ago). Apparently nicotine speeds up your caffeine processing time so maybe now it’s just sitting in my system longer. Maybe I need to rebuild a tolerance?
I was considering trying L-theanine but I’ve had a bad reaction to it before. Potentially I was just used to being in a high anxiety state all the time, and now that I’m much more zen I just can’t handle the caffeine come down anymore?
Has this happened to anyone else and has anything helped?
How to stop spotting on Slynd / Slinda?
I have been on Slinda for 26 days and have been spotting for the past 9 days.
I was thinking of trying the placebo / sugar pills to try and have a period to stop the spotting.
I have PMDD so I’m just wondering if this will affect my mood? Did having a period stop the spotting for you? Or should I just continue taking it without a break?
Slynd spotting - taking the placebos
I have been on slynd for 26 days now and have been spotting for the past 9.
I’m planning to start the sugar/placebos today to see if that will stop the spotting. Will my mood be affected ? Has this stopped the spotting for you?
Switching from a combined pill to a PoP (slynd / slinda)
Has anyone changed from a combined pill to a progesterone only pill with no break inbetween? Did it have any effect on your mood ? (Especially if you have PMDD) I’m specifically changing from Yasmin to Slynd.
Anyone else on Slinda had an increased appetite?
I recently started Slinda birth control and it has definitely increased my appetite. Did this get better for you or did you have to go up a dose? I have been on 5mg for 7 weeks. I haven’t lost any weight recently but I’m not too worried about that though.
