Hey everyone,

I really need some advice especially if anyone has experienced this - bare with me, its complicated!

I have been TTC for 14mths, over the past 6mths my skin has got really bad and is now classed as hormonal acne, so the doctor said to try dianette for a few months just to see if it improves my skin and as my H2B is away a lot over the next few months TTc would be difficult anyway...

I ovulate anywhere bet. CD 13 - 18 but generally its clear on FF when its occured and sometimes I get a pre-Ov dip. Luteal phase is generally 12/13 days. This month we BD 4 days before and 2 days before OV. I had all my usual PMs signs but horrendous skin which is what forced me to see the doctor - she said when your period starts take the 1st pill....

I normally spot the day before AF, and again I did this month with cramping. I had quite a medium/heavy flow 14 DPO which is bang on time really and my temp was 36.7 which although rare I do sometimes start AF at a high temp, but the next day it plummets. Anyway I took the dianette this evening at 10pm.....

15 Dpo/CD2 my period went lighter - very odd for me, and mainly it was brown, then I would cramp for about half an hour and it would go red, then back to brown. I started with a really bad cold, and my temp shot up to 37.1 - I have never had temps that high, even when Ive had colds in the past.
Could this be dianette - would it even affect me after 1 tablet????
Took the 2nd dianette tablet....

16 Dpo/CD3 - spotting brown, no cramping, temp still high 37.1 - cold still annoying me to death but now really nauseous for hours on end, went off food, and had lots of saliva. Cold still here - not as bad, more worried abotu the sicky feeling.... random

17Dpo/CD4 - still slight spotting, bit more watery really. No cramping, temp dropped but still high 36.8. I am normally down to 36.4/36.5 by CD2. Still nauseous but managed to eat more today, slightly dizzy - had a nosebleed, but still have a bit of a bunged up nose with cold so thats probably why.


So over the past 4 days Ive taken 3 HPTs all negative. My periods normally start spottig, then medium/heavy, then medium, then light, then spotting which could go on a few days - so generally 5 - 7 days of AF

so does anyone know if dianette can bugger you up this badly after 1 pill? Could my cold have done this to my temps/period?? Although its never effected my temp before.

Please take a look at my chart - Ive merged both cycles to give a clearer picture.

Thanks in advance girls - I appreciate the help!!!
 
Hiya, I don't have an answer for you, but didn't wanna read and run. Good luck finding an answer :thumbup:
 
Could you ask the doctor if the pill could be affecting your AF? Is it a hormone medication? I wonder if an ingredient in the medication could be changing something. Also, should you take the meds if you are pregnant...I think you should talk to the doctor.
Good luck!!!!
 
I stopped the dianette (which is a contraception - I know how annoying that the only acne treatment is "the pill") so I suppose that could cause a temp rise? But I only took 2... so I havent had it since tuesday night. Temps still high yesterday and today - was thinking of going to the doctor but Im sick of getting looked down at.

The fact my period is so different to normal flow is bugging me, and the high temps have never ever happened before - and the fact that I have had 3 negative HPTs - supermarket brand and today a clearblue digital. I suppose I will have to see what temp does in the morning. I just wish there was an explanation to stop me worrying.

Thanks for replying to me!
 
thought I would just update you all on my little problemo -

Well I am now 18DPO/CD5 not sure which! Still having very slight brown spotting, and yet another high temp 36.7 although that has come down by 0.1degree since yesterday. I am generally 36.4 at this time of my cycle if I am on CD5.

Has anyone had a +ve test after having an usual period and high temps that have continued 6 days past normal luteal phase?
