Nordette 28 and pregnancy symptomsFrom: anonymous@obgyn.netMon, 12 Aug 2002 15:20:31 EDT
I switched in May from OrthoTriCyclen to Nordette 28 due to nonexistent sex drive which was destroying my marriage. I quit Nordette about 3 weeks ago because I was showing signs of being PG. I knew I wasn't but my body was showing it was. My period was very strange, it has been consistent and regular for over two years even when I switched BC two cycles ago. I took a PG. test, got my blood tested for HCG, and if not PG., I also got a TSH test to answer the unexplained weight gain. I am not PG. and my thyroid is fine. My stomach to this date is still incredibly bloated and I am 10 pounds heavier. I know that the new BC has more progesterone in it but why is my body acting crazy now? Is switching brands or going from low estrogen to progesterone making my body think is it PG. so it is preparing for it even though the problem stemmed from BC? I watch my salt intake and I am a R.D. so I do not understand what in my diet could be having this effect on my body. My stomach has been hurting in addition to the bloating but my period has long since past and the blood test said neg. to PG. Jacqueline
