"Effexor ...caused me SEVERE menstrual bleeding and clotting."
If not for the fact that I'm stubborn, inquisitive, and fiercely independent, I'd still be anemic, weak, depressed and considering a hysterectomy.
Effexor not only didn't do much for my depression, it caused me SEVERE menstrual bleeding and clotting. Whenever I asked my shrink or my gynecologist, "could it be from my meds?" they said, "oh no, why would THAT cause problems with the uterus? So, how do you explain that as soon as I completely weaned myself off Effexor, my periods became normal again?
Never mind outlawing vitamins, herbs and dietary supplements, to pacify the evil pharmaceutical companies; outlaw the real dangers: selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors.
