Weight Loss, Discharging Lots Of Eggs. Reason? Medication?
I am 16 years old and about 200 pounds. I started taking vyvanse 30mg for a few weeks now. I've experienced dramatic weight loss since the first week or two I lost 10 pounds. now I got my period and it's longer than normal . it's been about 7 days and it really hasn't let up yet. plus i'm discharging a lot of eggs larger than a quarter everyday since I got on it. I want to know if the medicine is the cause or the weight loss or something else.(I also wanna say that when I was younger I had anemia-just thought I bring that up too:)

Hi,
I dont understand what you mean when you say that you are discharging eggs the size of a quarter. Anyway, by the history that you have given I would say that you have PCOD. PCOD stands for polycystic ovarian disease. PCOD causes symptoms like hirsutism which is facial hair for women obesity insulin resistance and such. Irregular periods is also a problem.
you should meet a gynecologist who will treat you for this and suggest the best management.
