I am on lo-ovral and have been for about 3 years (I am 43 and started having peri symptoms when I hit 40). I have had complete success using the pill. No anxiety, no hot flashes, etc. It evened out my hormones and I feel completely normal. If you have no risk factors, I would highly recommend it.

Sorry bout that Mary......someone else on this board is taking Yasmine. I thought it was you....:) Glad to hear you don't have any negative side effects from taking the pill.

neucindy,

My main symptoms were the anxiety, heart racing, and hot flashes. I am happy to tell you that they all completely went away after I started the pill (I take Lo-ovral). At the time, I had a hard time believing that the symptoms were related to hormones, but soon found they were! Good luck and remember it may take up to 3 cycles on the pill before you find total relief.
