Hi! I've been struggling with the same issue as you. About 4 yrs ago I had a late term mis and almost 3 years ago my son was born. I nursed for 6 months and when I finished nursing him my hormones went wacky. I have had horrible headaches, feel edgy and moody, bad periods and I stain and cramp a lot mid month. I feel down too and have sweating issues. I used to have insomnia at times My ob-gyn had tried several Birth Control Pills and the one that I am on now Yasmin seems to help but after two months of good, I had a bad month. The ob told me that its not entirely uncommon and that a lot of women suffer from this. I only rrealized how bad the problem was 1/2 years ago and the various Pills tried took time, but I am slowly improving. If you have any further ideas, I'd love to hear them/
Well, shoot. It's obvious something is out of whack. It's more than the usual post-pregnancy stuff. I grew extra hair during pregnancy then lost it after the birth of my children. But you're 15 months out from delivery. Have they done a transvaginal ultrasound too to check your ovaries? Keep pushing for answers. You have to be your own advocate sometimes and that's hard.
Thanks Ireneo, but i recently had my thyroid tested and they came back normal the only abnormal thing was my insulin levels were a bit high
It sounds very much like a thyroid imbalance. Run it all by your doctor and see what s/he thinks. A simple blood test could rule it out.
