I was taking cilest for years, no problem, loved it. Last year it randomly gave me health issues so had to stop. Tried a different one, gave me eczema rash over entire body. Within weeks of stopping, skin was normal so tried another one (femodene) seemed ok so have been using that about 5 months now. But about 2 months ago the eczema rash appeared again, as well as weight gain and extremely painful breasts and nipples! I stopped taking it just over a month ago but my bad skin has stayed! I'm even using an emollient from the dr but my skin is so bad :( could the pill take this long to leave my system?? Shall I wait a bit longer or has it changed my skin forever, in which case I may aswell just carry on taking it!
Also cilest which I took fine for years, if I started taking it again could I potentially use it again for years with no problem, or would it give me health issues straight away as that's how my body reacts to it now??
I'm so depressed by all this it's all been going on for nearly a year and just want some advice. Thanks anyone who can help x
