I had a baby 4 weeks ago and recently started taking phentermine to help with the weight loss. I have taken it in the past with excellent results, however, this time I have only lost 5 pounds in 2 weeks. Could it have anything to do with my post partum hormones?

hi guys!
im 19 years old and have never been on birth control. I am going to see my OB/GYN soon and i want to start taking it to prevent pregnancy but i am also looking for a pill that will increase my bust size.

I have had little to no breast development over the course of my life. Literally i am still in a training bra stage. This makes me believe that i have a hormone imbalance.

I’ve heard of girls getting larger breasts from taking birth control. Now i am not looking to have huge knockers, i would just like for my breasts to develop at least a little. At this point i dont even think i could breast feed my children.. (if i were to have children).

Do any of you know of a birth control that contains a large amount of hormones, or of a birth control that you yourself have tried that has significantly increased your bust size? Is there any kind of hormone therapy i could try that would increase my bust? I am open to anything and would greatly appreciate your help =]

I’m 24 years old, and I used to be in amazing shape. Then at the end of 2008 (just roughly after I hit 24 in September) I lost ALL my energy. I became super tired, and even doing the smallest task exhausted me. I gained over 50 pounds in just a few months. It just kept getting worse. I went to one doctor and he said that my Testosterone level being at 292 was completely normal for my age, and that I was just depressed. So he put me on anti-depressents and I still felt horrible. Finally 2 months ago I switched doctors, and my current doctor told me that my Testosterone levels should in no way be at 292, but at my age be between 700-1000 range. So he put me on Testim 1% (a testosterone gel which I apply once a day which gives me 50 mg a day). And while I am feeling a great deal better, I am not however losing weight. I dont get whats going on. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is it just going to take time for my hormones to correct my body, or am I just stuck?

(Fyi I exercise roughly 3 hours every day, I lift weights for 1 hour, then I go boxing for 1 hour and at night I take my dog for a nice walk for 1 hour) Not over training, but keeping myself active, but not dropping any weight.

What is the life expectancy for someone with stage IV breast cancer, age is early 60′s. They’ve decided to only treat it with hormones (anti-estrogen) because of how far it’s spread.

It just seems so unnatural to me. For years we thought that hormones were safe for post-menopausal women, and then we discovered they were not. Are we sure we should be messing with our hormones so much?
This is in reference to the newly approved birth control pill Lybrel…

I’m now 45 years old, I had full hystrctomy at the age of 27, I took premarin (hormones replacement) for 10 years. My doctor told me to stop due to some risks (cancer etc). I was perfectly fine for some years, but I have been severly depressed from last one year, and I am on on anti-depression medicines and I am also seeing psychiatrist
but my depression is increasing every day. Please help…
