Long term side effects of enstillar

Posted Mon 7 Nov 2022 18.36 by Lolarb

I have been using enstillar foam frequently for over 4 years. Over this time I have gained a significant amount of weight, began growing facial hair and have completely lost my sex drive. I have had numerous tests and concluded that there is nothing else that could be causing the symptoms. I was wondering if anybody knew If the symptoms would ease and my body return to normal now that I’ve stopped using the steroid creams? Thanks

lolarb sorry to hear that. Long term use of steroids is not recommended I know - have you spoken to your dermo about this? I mean dermatologist - not a doctor. You need specialist advice I think.. only other thing I can think of and Ive no idea if you are male or female so no need to reply or comment - is the perimenopause. This can start in your early 40s and is the lead up to actual full menopause which seems to go on forever and forever....!!! please do ask your doctor for a referral if you have not been seen by a dermatologist? best wishes
