Pain During The Use Of Nuristerate. Sore Nipples. Pregnant Or Medication Side Effects?


Hi doc.....on dec i started using nur-isterate for the first time
,after feeling how painful it was i decided i wouldnt do it again.
Jan i had drops of blood n not a full period ,then feb the drops
smaller. March nothing happened and i even had a preg test cos
i wasnt sure if this was normal, and the test was negetive, and
i'm using condoms now. My neeples r now a lil bit sore, could i
be pregnant or is it just the effects of the injection which will wear
off after its completetly out of my system?

Hello,
Thanks for your query. Its a depo-medroxy progesterone injection, its a contraception for 3 months. What you are having is absolutely normal, for few cycles you will have these symptoms, it will slowly come down. Its a very good contraception if you accept these symptoms for few cycles.

I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow ups.
Wish you good health.
Regards,
Dr Arif
