Help for post-pill acne, hair loss, and weight gain

  • Summary

  • What do post-pill acne, hair loss, and weight gain all have in common? They can all be the result of a temporary surge in androgens when trying to come off certain types of hormonal birth control.

    In this episode, Lara discusses post-pill androgen symptoms including:

    • why pills like Yasmin are the hardest to come off
    • how androgens can cause weight gain, and
    • natural treatments such as zinc, berberine, and cyclic progesterone therapy.
