I'm sorry if it's sort-of off topic.

Before I get to my question, I'll give you a little history.

I'm currently 24 years of age. When I was 15 I went on birth control pills. I finally got off them last fall after my husband had two clean samples post-vasectomy. Over the years I only took two brands: Tri-Norinyl and Ortho Tri-Cyclen (sp). In the eight months or so since I stopped taking the Pill my periods stayed pretty regular; every 28-29 days... around the 18th of the month. Until last month. My period came approx. a week early, but was normal otherwise.

About a week ago (approx. two weeks after the first day of my last period) while doing my monthly breast self-exam (late, I know!) I noticed that I was discharging milk. I still am nearly a week later. My period is due soon; I'm sure it's on its way because I found myself buying a huge bag of peanut butter M&M's today. I always crave them right before I'm due.

The only thing that has changed recently is that I'm taking Metabolife for weight loss. I've done some searching and found this. It looks like a few of the ingredients might have some affect on hormones.

Okay, so I guess my question is, has anyone experience/heard of this sort of thing with the diet pills? If this is what is causing milk production, it may have also caused my period to be early last month (I honestly can't remember when I started to take them). Or can something else be causing it? I've stopped taking the pills to see if the milk stops, but I wanted to get some ideas from you ladies while I'm waiting.
