Cramping, Nausea And Spotting. Taking Loestrin. Pregnancy Tests Negative. Other Reasons?
I am currently on Loestrin 24 FE and a week before my period was to start I started cramping and spotting, first light pink and then brown. I spotted and cramped for 5 days. Now that I am off of my active pills I have been nauseous and experiencing a tightening/ letdown sensation in both breasted but I have taken two at home pregnancy tests and both were negative. I am supposed to come on my periosld today and haven t. Could I be pregnant or am I just reacting negatively to my birth control .

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The mild spotting and nausea that you are having is likely to be due to a side effect of the pills. Pregnancy is not likely if you have taken all your pills regularly.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
