Off the Pill and...........
| Mon, 08-28-2006 - 7:11pm |
I went off OTC seven weeks ago and since then had have some odd things happen. First, my skin is incredibly dry and my lips will literally bleed unless they have balm on them 24 hours a day. My eyes are continually red and irritated, and my hair has gotten brittle, dry and frizzy.
I couldn't figure out what was going on and after going back trying to find the root of the problem, going off the pill has been the only change.
Has anyone ever experienced this?

It's possible that your natural estrogen hasn't recovered from being on the pill (which was providing most of your estrogen).
