[Caution] trying to conceive? that is a clinician conversation, not a forum one
Thinking out loud about this: trying to conceive? that is a clinician conversation, not a forum one.
Telogen shedding follows a period of significant weight change rather than a specific compound, and it resolves.
Anything involving pregnancy, contraception efficacy or fertility planning belongs with a clinician. That is not a disclaimer, it is where the answers actually are.
Started logging the cycle in the same sheet as the dose. Three months later the pattern was obvious and it had been invisible before.

best — the order this archive was captured in
Questions about oral contraceptive absorption and gastric emptying are legitimate pharmacology questions with product-specific answers. A pharmacist can answer them properly; a board cannot.
Yes — hair shedding tracks the rate of loss and it is temporary. That reassurance is worth repeating.

Right, and symptom patterns tracking the cycle rather than the dose explains a lot of confusing weeks.
log the cycle alongside the dose if you want the pattern to be visible
cycle timing changes how the same week feels
Push back: PCOS as a diagnosis and insulin resistance as a finding are not interchangeable, and the thread is using them as one.
perimenopause and this overlap in ways nobody has good data on
say what you are actually asking, the vocabulary here is imprecise
the trials were not designed to answer most of the questions asked here
