As stress wore down my immune system candida began to grow out of control in my body. This caused many unexplainable symptoms that the doctor could not explain. A thyroid panel came back normal yet I was having hot and cold flashes, felt very dizzy after eating, always out of breath just walking across the room and experienced anxiety attacks for the first time in my life. I thought I was going to die. This went on for months. To me, the proof that this was a systemic candida infection lies... View full comment

I was on TriNessa since I needed a generic for my insurance. I had no major emotional issues or weight gain. I think it did clear up my face--although I have never had a huge acne problem--only occasional breakout--which I had zero on this med. The problem for me was the breakthrough bleeding.
