Stopped Oxyelite To Check Irregularity Of Period. But It Gives Energy. What Can I Do?
My gyno wants to test my hormone levels to determine why I am not having regular periods because I am wanting to conceive. She told me to stop the oxyelite pro before the blood test in two weeks. Could the oxyelite really be the reason my hormones are off? I do not want to stop taking it because it gives me so much energy at the gym and keeps my weight down. Thanks,

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
OxyElite Pro is a dietary supplement to increase metabolism(used also as a weight loss supplemet) which contains as key stimulant the ingredient 1,3-dimethylamylamine.
FDA has discovered the product contains fluoxetine, a drug used in treating mental disorders such as depression, bulimia and obsessive-compulsive disorder.So,i underline to discuss witth your treating doctor about the riscs and the benefits of this dietary supplement.
About your questions ,i can say that Oxyelite Pro very probably is not the reason of your irregular periods but i agree with your obgyn to stop this drug a couple of days before you test your hormone levels.
Hope i have answered to your question.
Let me know if i can assist you further.
Regards
