Contraceptive Pill
- Thread starter Mexico
- Start date
dont know, I have the mirenda coil fitted, since being on this diet I have had a period every couple of weeks, even though I have had it checked out and ruled out any infections, this makes me think that it does mess about with your hormones, why dont you go on the liportrim site and ask the experts for peace of mind. I am sure you will be ok.

Hiya hun! I'm on the pill and the previous time i did LT it completely messed my periods up. Was on for about 12 weeks in total lol. Nightmare! However, this time i haven't had a single problem, just the same as normal! Both times i've been on it it has never effected my losses or anything like that..in fact its more of a challenge for me cos the pill tends to make me more hungry than normal lol. Hope that helps a little x

Hi Mexico,
i've got an implant and as i lose or gain weight it struggles to regulate itself properly so i get messed up, either too long or too short......i think its messed up now with just 5lbs loss as i feel like my TOTM is due just after 16 days......any how not worried as it will sort itself out once my weight loss stops

After a few weeks on the shakes i had my period like normal hun, then i'd start bleeding again for a few days, then it might stop for a one or two days n start again, that sort of thing. It was quite heavy at first and as the weeks went on it got lighter. I dropped 2 stone in 4 weeks when i first did it and apparently as it was such a dramatic change it caused a hormone imbalance. The doc told me to just carry on taking the pill as normal. This time as i'm already 4 stone lighter from having it done before, the losses are more steady and i haven't had any problems at all.
I wouldnt worry about it if its nothing much at the moment hun, you can get that sometimes from just being on the pill can't you. I'm sure you won't have to come off for your exams
the only reason im considering it for my exams is to avoid the embarrassment of my tummy making the worst possible noises in a hall full of silent people haha. I'm only joking, i survived my exams on it last year, i'll survive again!xxAfter a few weeks on the shakes i had my period like normal hun, then i'd start bleeding again for a few days, then it might stop for a one or two days n start again, that sort of thing.

It lasted for weeks?! If that happens I'll definitely have to stop, I didn't even think about it causing an imbalance! (Thankfully I'm planning on re-feeding either this week or next week, looks like it'll be this week!)
I have really severe period pains so I only have a break on my pills about once or twice a year because I can't afford to miss so much uni especially in exam time. (Missed 3 months on school in year 10 because the pain didn't stop) T.T At least I know it can handle up to 4 weeks before anything happens!
Did the imbalance affect your re-feed and make you regain?

Aww hun thats awful! I'm so lucky i rarely get any pain at all. I couldn't imagine what you have had to go through with it! Your definately doing the right thing then concerning your exams, i'd do exactly the same. Exams are bad enough without having to deal with anything else!
Nope i have to say the fact that it happened didn't affect me afterwards at all. Like i said it got lighter towards my last few weeks on LT and once i started eating properly again it sorted itself out
Don't worry unnecessarily though chick, like i said it might not affect you at all!xx
