Contraceptive Pill Fibroids
Has anybody heard of oral contraceptives CAUSING dysmenorrhea?
I don't have painful periods, unless I'm on the pill. Then they are so severe that I can't even walk! I have tried so many different versions of hormonal contraceptives that I've lost count and they all cause me to have extreme labor-like pains. My doctor cannot figure this out. She says that the pill is used to TREAT dysmenorrhea, and should never CAUSE it. I have been tested for fibroids and endometriosis, and nothing unusual was found. I need to be on the pill to regulate my cycle, but I can't deal with the pain. Has anybody else experienced this?
You say that you need to be on the pill to control your periods, yet you do not give any test results... just that you have been put on the pill.
Have your hormones been tested? I was put on BCP when I had pituitary issues and it did not help but instead it messed me up and I got severe breast pain and was a mess - and my periods still were bizarre.
Sometimes adding estrogen is not the answer - especially if extensive testing has not been done. Good luck.
Endometriosis Part 36 -symptoms and Risks of the Oral Contraceptive Pills
As we mentioned in previous articles during the last stage of the menstrual cycle normally a layer of endometriosis lining in the inside of the uterus is expelled, known as menstruation blood but instead some of the endometriosis tissues grow somewhere in the body causing endometriosis. Endometriosis also reacts to hormonal signals of the monthly menstrual cycle, building up tissue, breaking it, and eliminating it through the menstrual period. In this article, we will discuss symptoms and risks of the Pill.
Even though the Pill have its powerful effects in treating endometriosis, but it also creates many symptoms and risks for women with endometriosis.
1. Blood clots
All hormonal methods of birth control pose a threat to normal blood flow.The oral contraceptive combination pill is no exception, it increases the risk of of blood clots in your legs or on the lung caused by estrogen in the pill that makes your blood thicker in the veins.
2. Stroke
Woman who take the oral contraceptive combination pill increases the risk of stroke caused by blockage of blood flow to the brain as resulting of estrogen in the pill that reduces the oxygen transportation as the blood getting thicker.
3. Heart disease
Similar to the stroke, as our blood get thicker, our heart has to pump harder to provide oxygen for our body cells needed causing hypertension. If our heart has to work that hard for a prolong period of time because of long term use of birth control pill, it will be damaged causing heart disease.
4. Skin pigment
Some woman may experience increasing of pigmentation of skin that shows up in patchy and light brown area caused by estrogen in the pill.
5. Mood swing

6. Bleeding and spotting
Bleeding and spotting when you are not scheduled to bleed and spotting, are very common in the first 6 months of continuous birth control pill use, because your body has to take time to adjust to the change of hormone level caused by intake of the Pill. The longer you take the continuous pills the less bleeding and spotting will happen.
7. Infertility
Some women after coming off the birth control pill and hope to get pregnant, they may be disappointed. Not only the effects of birth control pill may be needed sometime to wire off, our body may never be able to adjust causing lost of period permanently.
