I just realized the only part of my post that showed up was the statement that i had major headache problems...it completely cut off the explaination. Weird. Anyway, I was saying that I do think it's possible for raw glandulars to work so well that your own body stops producing it's own hormones since it thinks it doesn't have to. When I stopped taking bb I began having massive headaches everyday of the month. I had weird sinus pressure and was dizzy and miserable. I went to the doc thinking something was terribly wrong in my sinuses and leading to not only the facial pain but also migraines. She said it sounded like I had no estrogen production and put me on bcp. All of my symptoms were gone in an hour. Obviously staying on bb for a year then stopping cold turkey was not the route to take. I wonder now if you have to taper off to stop if you have been on a glandular for a long time.
