Hi @karina77 you may have noticed I moved your post to this discussion on birth control in hopes that others may see your post and share their knowledge and experience.
I wanted to tag @tracidg90 @lioness and @contentandwell in hopes they may have some input on your situation and may be able to help you know what he means by taking hormones.
In the meantime here is an article explaining the causes of a hormone imbalance and the effects of such, including horrible periods: https://www.healthline.com/health/hormonal-imbalance-menstrual-cycle#symptoms
Back to you @karina77 do you feel comfortable explaining what makes your periods horrible?

Hi!
I spoke with my POTS Specialist( Dr. Fischer) in the Children's Pediatrics Department at Mayo. My periods are horrible because I experience increased nausea(I already experience nausea everyday- my doctor prescribed me Zofran, which has helped a bit), I get headaches and migraines, but my period makes those more debilitating causing me to be out for the day. The first 3 nights, I get little to absolutely no sleep whatsoever because I feel so uncomfortable. I have enough trouble sleeping. Mhm symptoms just worsen!

@ethanmcconkey @karina77 I'm sorry but this is beyond my ken, I know nothing about this at all. I wish I could help, but I have never taken any hormones.
