I am on my second month of taking Angelique and have started bleeding like a dark discharge. Also quite emotional all the time. The only reason I wanted to go on this was because of my hot flushes.

Hi,will angelique cause my BP to be lowered . I always has high BP but now since i started on Angelique ,my BP is low.Does it also cause stomach cramps , headaces and weeling weak. Is there a substitue for Angelique Thanks usha ## Hi, Usha! There is a chance that it may help to lower your blood pressure, because some blood pressure issues can be caused or aggravated by a hormonal imbalance. Thus, rectifying the hormonal imbalance also helps to correct the blood pressure problem. And yes, it can cause side effects like that, you may also experience acne, moodiness and weight gain. However, I don't know if there is a substitute there. Have you asked your doctor or pharmacist/chemist?

How long does it take to wean off angelique? I have been on it for ten years and my estrogen is apparently very high. My doctor said to just stop. I am on metagenics licorice plus. ## Hello, Libby! How are you? If your doctor said you should just stop taking it, then you should follow their instructions. There is really no need to taper, especially if your estrogen is high, as you won't likely have any severe withdrawal effects, according to the NIH. Are you on any other medications?

I started second packet of Angeliq and after taking the second tablet on the 30, I started with a brown discharge and then started bleeding, not hugely but everyday since. Is this normal, will it eventually stop? Not sure what to do. ## This is a hormonal product and it can be normal to experience such side effects for the first 3 months of use, while your body adjusts to it. However, have you consulted your doctor about it?

hello, I am away and rainout of Angeliq tablets. Silly me, but medical aid full of nonsense in giving another pack in advance,however thought a week off was not to serious. I have been off a week soon, and started bleeding after two days. A brown discharge then to red normal bleeding discharge. Is this normal. I have been on Angeliq for 6 years with supervision of my Gynae. I recently had a polyp removed and they are insisting that if another polyp re-occurs I should have the insertion of the Mirena ring which has less of the one hormone that causes polyps. I heard though that the Mirena has had major problems/side effects as do most tablets etc. Which is better? Any natural remedies as last resort.
