I started using the nustrate injection in June this year i went for my third interval on the 27 October im really feeling nauseas, breast sore and haven't had my menstruation. I also feel like there is a lump in my stomach as if im pregnant how possible is to be pregnant<<

Hello,I started using nustrate in 2014 October and I had no problem and never missed my date. It was a 2 month injection so in February 2015 I found out that I was pregnant and unfortunately it was an ectopic pregnancy. I'm still using the nustrate but I am afraid that the same thing might happen again. what can I use to make certainly sure that I won't fall pregnant? Please help me. ## Hello, Zoro! How are you? I'm very sorry about what happened. You may want to speak to your doctor about adding an oral contraceptive as an extra backup. Some women do, especially since the injection can sometimes cause bleeding and spotting that they want to get under control. The FDA lists the typical side effects of oral contraceptives as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, wei...

Hi, iv'e been taking this nustrate inj. for a period of 10 months. Since i began using it i dont get my periods, which they explain is not a problem. My problem is, for the past 3 months i've been having terrible back pain and want to know if maybe it's caused from the injection or not? Thanks. ## Is the pain constant, or are there just certain times it happens? For instance, do you notice it every day, all day, or could it be occurring just around the time you'd normally have your menstrual cycle? This medication may cause some side effects, but it's really hard to guess if it's what's behind your issue from just the limited information in this post. Have you talked to your doctor? ## Hello Ive been using the injection for 4 months now and latley ive been ex...

Hi I only got one shot of nustrate in october and didn't get my second shot. I got my period in november and it didn't come in december. My breasts are itchy and I have light cramps. Could I be pregnant and if not how are my chances of getting pregnant? ## Hello, Dee! How are you? It's difficult to say, these symptoms could be from being pregnant, or from your body going through the hormonal changes caused by not getting the next dose. Have you had any other symptoms, such as weight gain, increased urination or nausea? Have you had this checked out by your doctor?

i've been using nustrate injection for the past 4 months and every time when i have a shot my breasts become sore and ichy.is this one of the side effects? ## Nur-Isterate contains the active ingredient Norethindrone, it is a hormonal injection used to help prevent pregnancy, regulate menstrual cycles and has a few other medical uses. However because it acts on your hormones, "enlarged or tender breasts" and other bodily changes can be common side effects. Other possible side effects to be aware of may include those listed here: nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/a604034.html#side-effects I hope this info helps! ## i have been using unstrate an i was bleeding almost everyday an i stopped but am still bleeding an now i want to be pregnant with my first born please help me

I've been using nustrate for months now, bt I've missed my dates to get injection I went to the doctor just after 2 weeks is it possible that I might be pregnant as I'm feeling some changes on my breast n stomach bloated? ## Hello, Lebo! How are you? Yes, if you engaged in intercourse during that 2 weeks, then there is a chance that you're pregnant. However, as explained by the FDA, these symptoms could also be due to your body readjusting to the hormonal change of not having gotten the next dose on time. You may also experience headache, irritability and breakthrough bleeding. Have you had yourself checked for pregnancy?

I started using nustrate on the 1st of november and had intercourse 1 day after. Could I get pregnant, or does the injection become effective immediately after being shot? ## Hello, Gabby079! How are you? That may have been too soon to prevent pregnancy, if you had already ovulated prior to getting the shot. Have you consulted your doctor? You should do so as soon as possible to be certain of what's going on.

Hi i have been using nustrate contraceptives for a year and 2months now. My periods cant stop and i have lost a lot of weight now which realy worries me. I am now feeling nauseas and i am feeling something moving in my stomache. I have'nt stopped on the injection yet but thinking i should and just condomise. Will i gain my weight back, will my periods get back to normal, am i pregnant? What could be wrong? ## I've been using Nur-Isterate for 8 months and decided to use pills so i am just wondering if I'm pregnant cos ive got something moving inside my stomach and have nausea and i was intimate after my period and still i wasn't taking my pills every day. ## Hello, Teddy!

Hi , six week's after I gave birth i started to take birth control injection. Since then my baby has a very loose stomach if you don't know u will think it's diarrhoea. And again he doesn't sleep during the day, this is really worring me cos I'm breastfeeding ## That is the normal time it is given and said to be safe for the infant. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including weight gain, nausea, dizziness and irregular periods. Many children that are breast fed have very soft, grainy stools. Have you had this checked out by his pediatrician? Sleeping can be a whole different issue. How active is he?

Hello. I have a year using Nustrate i do not experience major effects on me but everytime my patner (Boyfriend) have intercourse for more than 3 executive days because its a long distance relationship he has back pains and is very convinced that it might be caused by the injection. Is that possible though, for my partner to get effects from my injection. ## No, it is not. The NIH warns that it may cause you side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, irregular bleeding, and irritability. However, in his case, it is most likely just due to the vigorous activity of lovemaking. Is he on any medications? ## To the best of my knowledge he is not on any medication.

I started nustrate in October and I've been on my period ever since. I'm so annoyed and very frustrated. Will they ever stop or I must just stop this injection?? #depressed ## Unfortunately, that can happen to some people that use this hormonal contraceptive. If it's more than just spotting and isn't stopping, you may need to switch to a different one. Other side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and PMS-like symptoms.

Could I be pregnant? ## I HAVE USED NUR ISETRATE FOR 5 YEARS AND I NEED TO FALL PREGNENT NOW ## Hello, Sash! How are you? Only your doctor and blood work are going to be able to answer your question about being pregnant. Even with the best contraceptive methods available, if you're actively engaging in intercourse, there is always a chance of getting pregnant. However, when you use a hormonal contraceptive, menstrual irregularities can occur and are usually nothing to worry about...
