What Causes Mouth Ulcers Post An Intake Of Microgynon 30?
Hi I began taking Microgynon 30 a week and a half ago after being on the depo for 6 years. Since I began the pill I have had multiple mouth ulcers that do not seem to be calming down and the sides of my face feel very bruised. Could Microgynon be the cause of this?

Microgynon 30 contains levonorgesterel, it is not known for it to cause mouth ulcers directly.
However certain drugs can produce hypersensitivity reaction that can present in the given manner.
It warrants thorough local examination of lesion for assessment of the severity and differentiation form other rash lesions.
It is advisable to immediately consult the gynaec doctor who had prescribed the pills. As any abrupt discontinuation may precipitate heavy bleeding.
Regards.
