What Causes Severe Pain And Irregular Bleeding While On Contraception?
Hi my doctor put me on contraception to help regulate my period and to stop the pain. I m currently on Levlin 50 but it does nothing in terms of helping my period. My period comes at irregular times, like right now it is a week and a half early and I have severe pain and irregular bleeding. Sometimes it will be heavy and then other times it will be just a drop. I take ibruprofen with 15mg of codeine in it to help with the pain but it s not doing much. Is there anything you could suggest? The pharmacist said I may have inflammation of the uterus.
Ultrasound pelvis,FSH LH hormone ratio ,thyroid profile and blood sugar level ,body mass index is essential to identify the cause of irregular periods.
