Birth Control pill and sinus?
by Maria2008, Oct 06, 2008 12:13AM
acI started to take birth control pill, Loestril 24 Fe in January this year.
At the beginning was horrible, I got a lot of cramps throughout the month. My doctor said I should give it time to get use to it. Within 3 months it got better but I never had a period since then. 5 months later, I developed acids, GERD and Rhinitis with a terrible nasal drip. I never thought it could be related to the bc pills. I took Nasacort, antihistaminics, did nasal washes…but the Nasal drip didn’t go. Then I thought it is not normal for a body not to have the period and it could be that this is the problem. So I just stooped the Loestril 2 weeks and the nasal drip got better.
Could this be the cause of the Nasa drip and congestion? Could the bc pills also be the cause of the acids? If this could be, is this reversible or did I meesed up my hormones for good?
