Side effects - coming off the pillCreated By MrsP on 16 August 2010

I came off the combined pill two months ago intending on trying to get pregnant with my husband. A couple of weeks ago I felt some symptoms of pregnancy, sickness, bloating, going off certain foods and drinks,and cramping etc however I got my period today and really feel like crap (cramps and migraine.) I'm off to the GP tomorrow as I've not experienced anything like this before. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced these types of 'phantom pregnancy' symptoms after coming off the pill??

I can totally sympathise with you. Since coming off Dianette 18 months ago, I have had many symptoms of pregnancy only to be met with negative tests every time. I now understand that many of the symptoms are due to stress and having low oestrogen levels. Not sure if I'm perimenopausal but the symptoms of this are very similar to early pregnancy. U need to get you GP to check your oestrogen, LH and FSH levels to give you a clearer picture. Hope this helps x
