I'm in the same boat, Marie. Am 52 and peri-menopausal. My SFN started within a month after going off the BCP last October. I'm considering just going back on them to see what happens even though no one will currently say my SFN is being caused by it. I'll see my gyn for annual exam in 10 days and will discuss it with her.

I am perfectly healthy, but suffer with painful SFN!  , life is so unfair.....
