hi thanks so much!
i actually do have another question. my dr suggested i take the seasonique mainly for hormonal purposes not for the purpose of birth control but since i have been taking it it has not effected my moods or anxiety and i feel emotionally the same. just my skin and then the bleeding is what i got out of it. i keep breaking out. i usually only breakout during my periods but i haven't had any relief with breakouts. and they are not zits caused by dirt i noticed it is more of an irritation or an allergy..
so my question is other than birth control is there any type of hormonal treatments that can help regulate your hormones when you get your period?
Hello,
Dry skin is a common side effect of lexapro while other symptoms that you have mentioned are frequent side effects of seasonique.Pls discuss these adverse effects with your doctor and shift to some other birth control measure.
You can apply some antiitch cream like antihistaminic cream on the itchy rashes but oral antihistaminics like benadryl or Claritin will be more effective.These are available over the counter.Application of calamine lotion and mild corticosteroid cream will help in providing soothness and relief to the skin.For the eyes,you can take some steroid eye drops but firstly pls consult an allergist/ophthalmologist.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep us posted if you have any additional queries
