Side effect of Ginette-35
I was diagnosed with PCOD a year back and my doctor started 3 cycles of Ginette 35 for me, which i consumed for 3 months and stopped 6 months ago.
Post stopping, i started suffering from severe hives/urticaria and constipation. Hair loss and Weight gain, too were prominent as i was anyway diagnosed with PCOD.
My symptoms match with that of Hashimoto's hypothyroidism.
Would it be possible that these are the results of the consumption of Ginette as the side effects started after i stopped being on the pills and not while i consumed them. Would it be possible that it has affected my Thyroid health?

These symptoms don't seem to be due to OC pills...anyway if you are suspecting hypothyroidism get a thyroid profile done and then treatment can be taken accordingly

It usually doesn't happen like this ...
ginette doesn't have any effect on your thyroid...
however if you are worried you can do a thyroid profile test in empty stomach and see.
There is definitely a probability that your PCOD has come back after you stop the medication because it keeps your hormone under control
