Bad cramps with the PROSTOGEN ONLY PILL(cerazette). Has anyone else experienced bad cramps with the POP?help!?

Question

Ive just started the POP (prostogen only pill) - cerazette from Monday and since then I have ben getting really bad cramps (period-like ones) I find this odd because it doesnt mention this being a side affect, just says acne, weight gain etc but nothing about cramps? They seem to be getting worse too, very simlar to the ones you have when youre on your period. Its weird cos I was on the depo provera before, &i never had anythin like it whilst on that.

So has anyone else had this whilst taking the POP? If the cramps do not stop, I plan to see my GP.

Also how many of you suffered with acne whilst taking pop? im scared about this!

Please help! Thankyou!

Answer 1

I'm not sure what sort of pill mine is i just know its called mycrogynon 30 and when i first started taking it i had cramps for the first week ish but as i carried on taking them it died down and even during period the cramps weren't as bad as i was used to.

I find my pill actually helps my acne, I was on antibiotics for years for my acne but it didn't help 6 months without them and on my pill and its all gone!

Stick it out anotehr couple of weeks. Then do what you said about your GP if it doesnt get better

Hope this helped.
