5mg Prednisone daily
Mar. 10th, 2008   10:40am
I have a mild case of CAH and currently am taking 5mg a day of prednisone.  I have noticed some facial hair growth of that 'area' in the past two years.  I have spoken with my Endroconologist over the years and she not once checked me out.  (Only my blood levels)  I now have a new doctor who looked at me and I will be seeing him this Friday to talk about my blood tests.  He said that indeed my prednisone may need to be upped.  I want to have kids one day, and my period is VERY irregular!  I had four periods in January (very heavey too, not normal for me. Also very emotional with the periods, and my breasts are enlarging.  I am not pregnant, I checked!) and many periods thru out the months to follow.  I wondered if anyone has had this?  I feel alone with having CAH, and people don't understand.  I would appreciate any feed back you may have.  Thank you :o)
Kim
