Suggest Treatment For Hot Sensation On Body After Stopping Birth Control Pills

Can be due to raised testosterone.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The feeling of hotness in the body during the day is likely to be related to change in the hormonal balance. You have mildly raised testosterone levels. This can also cause the hot feeling. A raised metabolic rate can also be responsible for this. It is not worrisome.
The pain in the armpit and shoulder blade is likely to be a muscular pain. This will improve with rest and mild pain killers. Doing a hot compress and applying local analgesic gel will also help.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Detailed Answer:
PAP smear is not related to PCOS. It refers to polycystic ovaries that is associated with metabolic imbalance and formation of multiple cysts in the ovaries. This can be detected on an ultrasound scan in case you are having irregular periods. Low ferritin levels are not worrisome. You can take iron supplements to correct this.
Dietary modifications is the best method to correct this. If there are no other symptoms then no specific treatment is needed. You can take Tylenol for symptomatic relief.
High levels of free testosterone can be a possible cause.
Metabolic disorder occurs when abnormal chemical reactions in our body disrupt the normal metabolism like in diabetes or hormonal problems. Do take care of your diet and see if it helps.

Stop taking pills to improve symptoms.
Detailed Answer:
The symptoms and dizziness that you have can be due to Lomedia also. The increase in acne is related to raised free testosterone levels.
The cysts can be detected by ultrasound scan and an MRI scan of the lower abdomen.
Even if all your blood levels are normal, the symptoms can be related to the side effects of the birth control pills.
Either you stop taking the pills for at least 3-4 cycles or you can resume taking the pills you were taking earlier. It will help.

Can this possibly be related to me having some sort of food intolerance? or allergy to certain things I am eating or drinking? I don't know what else it can possibly be.. and I read online that some food intolerances can cause burning eyes, and adrenal fatigue. who would be the doctor to help me with this? a gastro?
Can be due to food intolerance.
Detailed Answer:
Since you have been taking a pill for last 10 years it will take 2-3 months of pill free period for you to feel better. Do consult an infertility specialist if you want to conceive. Try to monitor your cycle length and duration without any pills.
