i can't believe it! i am fascinated with natural healing ever since my horrible experience with oral contraceptives and i was worried that i was going to have to resort to western medicine for my problem, and not heal it myself. i was on birth control pills for 3 months but they were high estrogen pills. i know this sounds like it could not have made any difference but BELIEVE me it has. the result of only a 3 month therapy was a chronic 6 month condition of acne. i did not have acne before and all of a sudden it was so severe my esthetician was recommending accutane. i am also on thyroid hormones (i am awaiting my appt. to switch to a more natural choice) so the clash of OCs was out of control. ANYWAY i am so happy i now know a name for my condition. i have not been diagnosed but i am positive it is because when my estrogen levels are higher (or when they are suppossed to be) the pain is relieved a little or as much as it can be and when it is suppressed (right before menstruation), the pain is awful. my point is... it's obvious i also had an insane chemical imbalance. and because birth control can completely fender your natural production of estrogen i am starting to believe this is the issue because i am never even thinking about sex when i used to crave it all the time... even before i was sexually active. your story has given me so much hope and i am so thankful. because of you i am now on my way to -hopefully- healing myself. thank you. thank you so much you are an angel and have shown me the light
