If you take any medicine, you may be aware of the possibility of side effects. Contraceptives can also cause such effects. There are rarely headaches, stomach problems, and a feeling of tightness in the chest. These symptoms usually disappear after 2-3 cycles of use. When using estrogen-gestagen preparations, the risk of embolic-thrombotic diseases increases.
Oral contraceptives are extremely effective in preventing pregnancy, but at the same time affect the entire body.
Some activities are very beneficial - it can be summed up with the slogan: "hormonal pill heals". You should also be aware of the side-effects of taking the pill. (about this below). The classic pill consists of two hormones, similar to those produced by the female body. The introduction of these substances at an unusual time in the cycle blocks the natural production of hormones. As a result, all symptoms characteristic of the natural physiological cycle disappear, including unpleasant symptoms.
Favorable changes in puffiness symptoms under the influence of hormonal contraception
1. Disappearing distress (pain and spotting), no premenstrual pain, swelling of the breast, tension in the abdomen.
2. Monthly bleeding is shorter, less abundant and less painful. All these effects are beneficial for women who use pill, especially for those who have trouble with anemia. During normal, heavy menstruation, a lot of blood is lost - and the iron contained in it. Thus, reducing bleeding means a significant reduction of these losses. It is not insignificant: doctors in Poland have noticed that many women suffer from anemia. It is often the result of a poor diet.
3. Under the influence of the hormonal pill, premenstrual tension is reduced. As you know it manifests itself in a nasty mood in the days preceding the period. Many women fall into depressive moods, suffer from headaches, feel breast pain and abdominal pain, complain of fatigue and difficulty concentrating. The use of hormonal contraception reduces or eliminates these symptoms.
4. Long-term (at least a few months) use of an oral pill reduces the risk of benign breast changes (mastopathy).
5. The contraceptive pill also protects the woman to some degree against cervical and cervical infections. This does not mean, however, that the pill protects against all sexually transmitted diseases! Women who have a basis for fear of infection (many sexual partners, one permanent partner whose loyalty is not certain, etc.) should use condoms in addition to the pill.
6. In women using oral contraceptives, abnormal endometrial hyperplasia is less common. Interestingly, this effect lasts even a dozen years after discontinuation of the pill.
There are also adverse effects of using the hormone pill when we say that the hormonal pill harms.
1. Women using pills are at greater risk of vaginal inflammation, manifested by vaginal discharge, burning or pruritus. This does not mean that these diseases are caused by a pill: they are rather the result of infections associated with more frequent intercourse and the fact that women who use pills rarely use condoms simultaneously. For similar reasons, a woman using a pill can more often contract bladder inflammation.
2.The effect of using oral contraception for a long time may also be the feeling of vaginal dryness. Therefore, there may be pain in sexual intercourse and a decrease in sex drive.
3. More serious complications can happen to women who suffer from certain conditions, such as varicose veins. If they decide to take a pill, they risk that the disease can develop. In varicose veins clots may develop and inflammation may develop.
4. In patients with coagulation disorders, the pill increases the risk of embolism.
An embolism is a clot in an artery or vein that can cause severe internal damage. People with ischemic heart disease (generally older people), as well as those suffering from heart disease that increase the risk of blood clots (including some defects in the valves), should also avoid the hormonal pill.
5. In women who have previously had liver disease serious enough that this organ is not functioning properly, the disease may get worse.
6. Women with a genetic predisposition to improper fat management, with high cholesterol levels, using pills risk increasing the severity of atherosclerotic lesions.
