Is Abdominal Pain, Related To Intake Of Birth Control Pills?
i keep having abdominal discomfort. i recently started birth control a month ago and i've been spotting. is that normal? can the abdominal discomfort be related to the birthcontrol? last year i was diagnosed with gastritus. as well as this year i was rediagnosed with ovarian cysts. which is why i started birthcontrol. i dont know what to do?
Hi, You need not worry. Birth control pills can cause known side effects like mid cycle spotting, stomach cramps, nausea, abdominal discomfort but these side effects will disappear shortly. For gastritis you can take antacids like proton pump inhibitors 30 minutes before breakfast.
