Christy,

Thank you so much for your post. I am 27 years old, married, on 2000 mg/met a day, and have just recently gone off the bcp (after 9 years) to see if I could get a period on my own. I am 5'8" and 135, so weight has not been too much of an issue...but since I have gone off of the pill I have started to severly breakout and feel as if I am gaining weight. My endocrinologist has ordered tests, but not all that you have listed. Do I simply demand that the other tests be given??? It's been 4 weeks since I stopped taking the BCP and I am not sure when I should expect to have a period. I am scared of what is happening to my body and feel that I am not getting adequate help. Thanks for any advice that you (or anyone) can give!!!
