I just started Birth Control & in a minute I have swollen foot...?

My doctor just started me on Yasim Birth Control roughly 3 weeks ago & since then I hold noticed my foot, especially my right one is very swollen on top. Whenever I push down, it hurts similar to a sprained ankle would & it is noticeably texture differant to the touch. It feel like my foot are retaining too much water.

My right foot is more definite than my left. I don't stand for work, I sit at a desk most of the light of day. I am slightly over-weight for my height of 5'10" & own had history of heart arrhythmia but zilch too serious to be on medication.

I desperatly need to stay on birth control due to my need of menstrual cycle (absent for almost 5 months) plus in the adjectives my fiance and I would like children.

I would really close to some advice, so if you own any please feel free to permit me know. I have looked into the side effects of this specific drug & zilch comes back about feet retaining too much hose down. Could it be because I'm overweight? Or more serious, my heart?

Girls!Does it hurt?


You need to see a doctor. Like you, I don't know anything around this being a side effect of hormonal birth control, but as far as I know, because my doctor have always asked or checked for swollen foot, this could be serious. Call your doctor.

Do you think getting a frontage lift at 50 is okay or should I consent to nature whip it course?

I'd see your provider ASAP, because most hormone meds (like BCP's) can cause DVT's (small clots in your legs). Go to ER hastily if you have any shortness of breath, chest strain, or any other changes...
