Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Fluttering Sensation In The Lower Abdomen After Taking Progesterone?
I just started take the progesterone only pill Jolivette today. I ve never been on birth control before. A couple hoes after I took the pill at 8pm I started feeling a fluttering sensation in my uterine area (right above pelvis, lower than stomach). Is this related to the pill? Should I be concerned?
Progesterone can cause abdominal pain and pain in the uterine region also. Over long term, the pain may subside or come down. You need to be concerned if the pain or fluttering is unbearable or if it is accompanied by severe bleeding. Otherwise you can continue taking the pills. I hope this helps. Thanks.
