Other causes include tumours of the pituitary and adrenal glands, and tumours in other areas of the body. Around one in 50,000 people are affected by Cushingâs syndrome, with females more susceptible to some forms than males. Without treatment, the disorder can be fatal. Many overweight people with hypertension or diabetes have some features of Cushingâs syndrome. Tests can be done to rule out this possibility.
Customer: replied 1 year ago. Approximately how many months would you recommend being on birth control pills to regulate your hormones because I would like to start trying to have a baby soon so I want to be on the pill for as short a period of time as possible. Thanks. Expert: Dr. David replied 1 year ago.
Best Answer: Birth control pills are a synthetic form of the hormones progesterone and estrogen. They prevent ovulation by maintaining more consistent hormone levels. Without a peak in estrogen, then, the ovary doesn't get the signal to release an egg.No egg means no possibility for fertilization and pregnancy.irst off its not tricking your body per se. The increased levels of progestin and estrogen override the LH and FSH surges; therefore no egg matures and is released. Estronen is not necessary in preventing pregnancy (hence progestin only pills or 'mini' pills).
