Tw: lack of confidence and body hair I came off the pill (Microgynon) in January of 2024, so it’s been a full year from I came off. My periods just continued as normal and I didn’t have any other side effects. However from about march/april I noticed that the vellus hair on my face, neck, arms, stomach etc has turned darker and longer. I’ve been too afraid to shave or remove it incase it is terminal hair. I had my bloods checked in the doctors and they said they were fine. I knew there had to be something so I got them checked again and my prolactin levels were high but they advised this was normal and would come down on their own. For the few months after I ordered hormone testing kits around my time of the month to check the hormones myself. The first time my testosterone levels were high and the second time again my prolactin levels were high. I’ve tried to do my own research and I can see hirsitusm can be linked to high androgen levels but I’m not sure of prolactin can be a cause of this or how to bring the levels down naturally. I’ve tried spearmint tea twice a day for months and I don’t see any difference. Has anyone experienced this or have any tips on what to do? My self confidence is now lacking especially with so many events coming up this year. It’s the first thing I assume people notice. Brand: Microgynon 30
