What Is The Cause For Bloatedness After Taking Birth Control Pills?

I am currently experiencing extreme bloatedness (my pants are suddenly tight) and a clear string discharge. Last month I was taking birth control, but now am not. I was figuring the stopping of hormones is what caused the imbalance, but just want to be sure it couldn t be something else. My last period seemed of normal length and I am not due for my next on for another two weeks.

Dear Member,

Thanks for choosing healthcare magic.
oral contraceptive pills are hormonal pills .some women may experience water retention and bloated feeling like tight clothes, finger rings, bloated and heavy breasts.
I would recommend you to switch to the low dose pills, or one with drosperinone like tab YASMIN. it has been found to have lesser side effects.
write back if you have any queries.
Thanks.
