paper var/mood swings/missed period

[lil k]

while having done var before, i have never done paper var. 1st off let me tell you......it is awesome!!!! building muscle, gaining strength, gaining great definition, and burning fat, woo hoo! papervar is far and away the best product on the market...also, i will say that i am using the new version...the overdosed them by 10%.

but here is my question, i have always experienced late periods, or just spotting while on var, but this time i have now realized that im just not gonna have one this month. now the thing that is confusing me is the mood swings. i had my usual pms symptoms, which of course sent kronk running in the opposite direction. when it was time to start, everything was fine, symptoms disappear, just like normal, just no period. End of second week and BAM! i am slammed with the worst case of evil. bad mood swings, hating everything in the world and cramps, and tender breasts. two days later....im fine again.

am i insane or is this normal for some of you?....i am thinking that it may just be that this var is so pure and strong it is setting me off? any ideas ladies?

How long have you been on now and at what dose? and is this all you are taking?

been on var for four weeks...papervar for almost 3 of those....taking 10mg ed (one square), however it is most likely 12-13mg....

i am highly knowledgeable in this area as well as most others (although I choose normally not to post it), but this is a whole new factor to me....

and yes...other than creatine...this is all that i am taking..

PaperVar is VERY strong IMO. I have taken var before but this stuff surpasses everything!

I had a wreck mixing var and wellbutrin. It has never stopped my period but I haven't done the paper kind. Do a search for wellbutrin and it will pull up the replies from MS and Wilson as I think it may shed some light on your sitch even though you aren't doing the wellbutrin i.e. could be dose related. If it were caused by the things they were talking about I think it would be constant rather than cyclical, though.

kinda the opposite for me, really weird, When I was taking the bratis for 6 months before my first contest, after the first month, period stopped, when I started taking the papervar for 6 months, I got really low, like around 6% and I STILL had a period, really freaky. But I wouldn't worry one bit, As long as you KNOW you are not pregnent and if you have the SLIGHTEST inclination that you might be, go get a test, you don't want to be taking var while you are pregnent, that would be my only concern and was my only concern when I was taking it and not having a period.

It ain't the OX causing cramps, tender breasts and evil moods, that's estrogen.

You probably have your HPOA in a state of confusion so who knows what is happening to E and P and when.

I really wish one of the groups studying female HIV patients on OX would look at the effects on LH, FSH, E and P. Certainly their hormonal state is a mess as a function of the other drugs they are taking and well as HIV, but it would give us some sense of what is going on.

From short-term studies in men, OX will shut down LH and FSH in doses of 15 mg/d within a matter of days. There's no reason to believe that this wouldn't happen in women as well, and at lower doses.

Putting the body in a state of confusion is right! My cycle has started again. First I was spotting and now this. This hasn't happened to me in 10 yrs!
