I'm thinking about starting Novelon tablets for my polycystic ovaries to help regulate my periods. I'm a bit concerned though, will taking them cause me to gain weight? I do plan on taking them with my doctor's advice, but Id love to know if this has been an issue for others in the past. Can you confirm?

Novelon tablet, containing desogestrel, is a progestin-only pill used to regulate menstrual cycles, including in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), but it may not directly address polycystic ovaries; regarding weight gain, Novelon is considered weight-neutral, meaning it's unlikely to cause significant weight gain, but individual responses may vary;

View allI'm dealing with a really bad cold, and it's making my nose run a lot. I'm also sneezing and coughing, and sometimes I get headaches too. I didnt see a doctor, but I took this medicine called Citzine. Now, I've noticed that my vaginal discharge seems a lot more than usualit's clear, slimy, and watery. Could this be related to my cold, or is it something else? Or maybe it's a side effect of the Citzine? I'm a bit worried and would love some advice.

I'm curious if it's normal for someone to feel more sexual or have a stronger urge to watch porn during their period. My sister experiences this, and I'm wondering if there's something behind it hormonally or psychologically. Is this something that you've come across before?
It's not uncommon for some people to experience heightened sexual urges during their periods due to hormonal changes. However, it's important to ensure that she feels comfortable with her desires and makes choices that align with her values and well-being.
