Hi! I stopped taking Spiro a few months ago because for me the dizziness/off balance feeling was constant and I just didn't feel myself. It also caused my menstrual cycles to go haywire and I also lost my sex drive. It's never been very good to begin with and I (we) can't handle it getting worse! I'm not sure what your age is, but when I was in my 20's the hair growth wasn't too bad, but it increasingly got worse and I started getting electrolysis done. unfortunately, I should have started some kind of medication to slow the growth because I spent a lot of money on the elect. but the hair growth was continuing.
I did notice a decrease in the hair growth. Not sure if my scalp hair was improving. I just couldn't deal with the side effects of the Spiro. I don't recommend birth control pills. I think it contributed to my infertility, but that's just my theory.
I was just reading about drinking spearmint tea to help with the hair growth. I'm thinking about trying that until I see my endo. next time. There's also a cream maybe your doctor can suggest - I'm just not sure if insurance covers it.
Good luck! |
