Could Severe Pain In Back, Numb Legs And Tight Body With Difficulty Breathing Be Due To Being Late For Nur Isterate Injection?

Hi there I am 34 years old and have been on nur-isterate for a very long time my injection was due on monday but I couldnt get to the chemist as yet to get it done I have had very bad back ache for the last couple of weeks and yesterday my legs had like some sort of numb pains and my upper body felt very tight and at times it was hard to breath could it be because I am late for my injection or could this be caused by something else I have also had very high fever this past week? Please could you maybe help?

Hi,

Nur insterate is a hormone progestin containing contraceptives. For continuous contraception needs to be injected at scheduled time.

Yes, when you are late in taking a dose of the contraceptive. The possible withdrawal symptoms like... increased sensitivity to pain&body ache/irritability/insecurity can occur.

If you are late than a few days. Please use barrier contraceptive this month &start with a new regime of injection within 5 days of periods.

For the pain you can take over the counter pain pills as per need. Rest are psychological problems, relieved by positive thinking & mind conentration exercises under expert care.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
