If you are worried, it would be best to have yourself check for it. However, according to NIH reports, those can be normal side effects of the medication. Other side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, headache, and PMS-like symptoms. Has there been any change? Are you on any other medications? ## I am not ...

I am using the nustrate inj., however in February this year I developed a fungal infection. I started taking meds that resulted in me spotting everyday. I don't see my periods when I am using it but recently I was intimate while I was bleeding or spotting without protection and I worry if I would be pregnant cause I didn't test before the inj. again. ## Hello, Dudu! How are you? What medications did you take? Some antibiotics can lessen the efficacy of some hormonal contraceptives, as reported by the NIH. However, there shouldn't be an issue if you only took antifungals. Some antifungals tend to cause spotting, if used vaginally, because they irritate the cervix.

Hi. I would like to know, what are the chances of falling pregnant while using the contraception? ## Less than a percent, if you get all shots on time and not late and don't miss any.

I started using Nustrate on the 30th of June this year and i want to know this is it possible to experience side effects while it is my month to take Nustrate again. Im scared that im pregnant because i start eating too much, sleep alot, my breast aches and i have stomach cramps. Can i be pregnant or this are the late side effects of Nustrate? ## Hello, Patience! How are you? There is always a slight risk of pregnancy, but if you've been getting on schedule, it isn't very likely. You can always do a test to ease your mind and be sure. However, the symptoms you've described can also be due to changing hormone levels in your body, which would also make sense if this is slowly wearing off. Is there anything else I can help with? ## My first time taking this nustrate, i had unpr...

Hi, I've been taking nustrate for a year then I stopped 3 months ago and I haven't received my periods. I am worried because my breasts are big and itchy. Could I be pregnant? ## Hello, Mau! How are you? If you've had intercourse during the past 3 months, without using some form of protection to protect against pregnancy, then yes, there is a chance you may be expecting. However, when coming off of such a contraceptive, it can also be normal to experience irregularities for several months, while your body readjusts your natural hormones. As listed by the FDA, you may also experience headaches, irritability and PMS-like symptoms. Have you had yourself checked for pregnancy? ## Hi, i was using nur-istrate from february 2015 until september 2016. I had unprotected intercourse a...
