Hi. I have been on the pill for the last two months, using it solely for birth control.
I have never had any problem with period pain until now.
My period was supposed to start tomorrow (based on what happened last month) only it started today. Is this common? I have had the worst pain ever today. I think it MUST be period pain.?? It feels like my ovaries are being twisted and stretched and pulled. It has been feeling like this for about 2 weeks only not almost as bad. Today I could hardly stand up straight. Previously, there was only pain when I stretched too much or when lying on my stomach. I saw the doctor for this just yesterday and she said to wait and see what happens, without even doing any tests!
I was wondering how likely it is to be caused by the pill. I thought that the pill was commonly prescribed to people suffering period pain to stop it, not cause it.
I have also been dizzy, having headaches, tender breasts, fatigue, and other symptoms that are related to pregnancy, but I know that I am not pregnant as I have had blood tests, HPT, periods, and have been feeling this way almost since the day I started the pill. And I hadn't had sex until 1 month of taking the pill.
I have told my doctor all of this SEVERAL times. I think she is just sick of me worrying what could be wrong. She said it is NOT from the pill so I should keep taking it. But if it isn't the pill I don't know what is wrong with me.
Please help. I know I haven't really asked any questions, but would appreciate any advice and opinions.
Thanks anyone who bothers reading to the end.
