Hi there,
I have recently (8 days ago) started taking Microgynon 30 and have had maddening side effects. After spending an age on the internet reading others' posts and answers I have resorted to posting my own question with the hope that someone will be able to help answer my concern.
I have had the common side effects felt by many women... nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, and severe bloating, these I can cope with knowing (or at least hoping) that they will pass as my body acclimatises to the Pill. However, I have severely itchy skin all over my body. This began when I started on Microgynon 30. I have no rash, and have never had allergic reactions to anything before, and have not changed my washing liquids/clothing materials/body washes etc.
My questions are whether anyone else has suffered form this itching sensation? How long until it passes? Or should I cease taking Microgynon immediately and try another brand?
Any advice/help/experience would be wonderful, I will be incredibly grateful.
Some times like you said, it just happens while your body is trying to get used to the pill but if they continue for another month I would get changed to another pill. It's not worth the side effects, and you end miserable because it's just not working well with your body.
