What Causes Vaginal Dryness And Headaches After Taking Medroxyprogesterone Acetate?
Hi I was given a prescription for MedroxyProgresteronerone Acetate. Since I have started taking this prescription, I have experiences severe vaginal dryness, headaches and tenderness and swelling of my breasts. Is this normal and is there anything that I can take to stop the dryness?
The symptoms seem to be related to side effects of the medication that you are already taking. They are normal. I suggest using a vaginal lubricant to prevent the dryness. I also suggest drinking liquids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
