Does Norlevo Cause Painful Nipples And Vaginal Bleeding Unconnected To Periods?

Hi, i had unprotected sex 3 weeks ago and took norlevo within 24hrs. All seemed fine. 2 weeks later i had bleeding for around 4 days, which wasnt my period as it ia due next week. Once the bleeding stopped my breasts became VERY swollen, heavy and tender. This has since eased however my nipples are very painful. Is this the pill or pregnancy?

Hi,

I understand your concern.

What you are experiencing is not pregnancy as you had Norlevo pill within 24 hours after having unprotected sex.

Bleeding you experienced is due to your monthly period. The swollen breasts became very swollen indicating possible ovulation and preparing for next monthly bleeding.

Take paracetamol or ibuprofen for the painful breasts. Apply cold compresses locally.

All the best.
