Do BCP make your body want to produce more testosterone? Hi cysters! I was just thinking about how I used to be before ever starting the pill at age 18 and EVERYTHING WAS FINE!! beautiful skin, hair, everything! IN fact I think before I ever started taking the pill I had LOW testosterone because I never wanted to have sex w/ my boyfriend. I remember when I started on the pill my sex drive went up. Then I went off thepill for a few months and thats when everything happened! MY hair fell out, my skin broke out, and i noticed hair in places that didnt have any before. So I went back on the pill and it got worse before it got better. It takes about 6 months back on the pill for it to go away. I had my total testosterone taken around 3 1/2 months back on the pill when my symptoms were still bad, but getting a little better and it was at 66, my free was 0.4, and my SHBG was a 215! I think my testosterone is high, but my doctor didnt say anything. What do you think? Thank you if you read through this!!
