I Started Taking Estradiol Tablets 1 Week Ago. After 3

Posted on Thu, 12 Sep 2019

Question: I started taking Estradiol tablets 1 week ago. After 3 days, I started to experience mild lower pelvic pain. After 5 days, this pain was accompanied by the constant urge to urinate and frequent urination. Could this be a side effect of the Estradiol?

Brief Answer:
Abdominal cramps and increased urination may happen with Estradiol

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to "Ask a Doctor" service,

I carefully read your query and understand your concern.

Estradiol can cause some side effects and abdominal cramps and increased urination are among them.
I would advise you to talk to your doctor and have a thorough examination to rule out other possible causes of your symptoms. As I noticed above, you have already had a urinalysis which has come out normal and no infection is identified.

You may need to discuss with your doctor regarding the possible side effects of Estradiol and further decide on its use.

I hope this answers your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj
