Hello ladies

Doctors visit left me in a bit of confusion. First off he want me to go on BC to induce menopausal state and see if my symptoms of endo persist or go away so he knows for sure if I have endo or adenymosis. He didnt really listen much to anything I told him and ignored other sings that my other doctor and countess holistic practitioners have acknowledged. I do not feel good about that at all. I mean its not about being right, in this case Id much rather be wrong but anyway I shall continue..
So he goes on to tell me that my acne and minor facial hair among other small issues is probably related to me not ovulating properly. He said the pill "should" help with that stuff too.

My opinion is that he is maybe a jackass. Why would you give a 23 year old young lady BC to induce menopause to diagnose Endo knowing it could further mess up my cycles? If you think my progesterone is low ovulation isnt functioning at its prime why would yo give me BC

Agreed that's all they are trained to do, prescribe stuff even at the risk of an in thorough anaylsis, at least naturopaths spend time trying to get the big picture and take a historical view of what you've experienced in the past.
Ive said it before to others and Il say it again.

EVERY girlfriend I have who spent a long period of time on BC ALL have PCOS now and irregular periods. The reason they went on birth control in the first place wasn't because they had period abnormalities in the first place it was simple for birth control. The problems all came when they got off it and have persisted for years following.
