I got a sunburn on random spots throughout my body (chest, shoulders, parts of stomach, calves, feet) and the only thing helping with pain is a cold wet towel. I saw online to only leave them on for 20 minutes but as soon as i take it off, it hurts again. Ibuprofen, Tylenol, aloe, and cold showers aren't helping. I've been moisturizing with cerave. I'm just curious if there's any consequences for leaving it on all day or when i sleep.

I started the minipill in January and spotted for 3 days after 2 weeks of taking it. Not a big deal, it was manageable. Now it's August and I'm experiencing what seems like a full blown period. Cramps that meds can't resolve, a lot of blood, even blood clots. My gyn said that I wouldn't be getting a period on this pill, so it can't be a period right? It's day 2 and I even had the cramping happening before the blood came. I tried calling and messaging my doctor but she didn't pick up and I probably won't hear back until Monday at the earliest.

This week has been crazy for me. My dog had passed away on Monday and on Tuesday I was really sick with a fever. After Tuesday I've had brown-red discharge, cramps, and it feels like I'm bleeding but I'm not. I started norethindrone in January originally on Jaimiess. I was told that symptoms would resolve after 3 months but mine didn't show up until after 3 months in May. My breasts have been constantly hurting since June as well which is a symptom I've never had before and after birth control until now. I don't think there's any pregnancy risk because I use condoms every time and haven't even had sex recently. I wasn't sure if my body is just feeling this way because I've been sick or grieving.

Update: So now I'm bleeding, it looks like a period but my doctor said I'm not supposed to get one so is it a period or breakthrough bleeding or something else? Have cramps too. My doctor isn't responding back to me.

I'm 7 months into taking norethindrone, and have been feeling cramps and having a lot of discharge recently. I sometimes take the pill an hour late (within the last week it was only 20 minutes late which was today) so idk if that's the reason. I usually get the cramps and discharge before i get a period but I'm not supposed to have a period on this pill. I'm taking a pregnancy test later but I'm expecting it to be negative so idk why else this is happening.

Edit: i took 2 pregnancy tests, the first one said negative but it had a line going through the negative in the opposite direction (i think it got messed up somehow), and the second was negative.

I had a crown done in January and it was one of the most painful things i experienced and it took me 4 months to recover from. In May i had my cleaning done and i brought up how my tooth still hurts and they took an X-ray and said it looked fine physically and now it's July and it still hurts when i eat, my teeth touch each other, and when my retainer is on. Because the X-ray was fine, the doctor said I don't need a root canal unless I want one. I'm sick of my tooth hurting all the time but I don't want to go through another half year long recovery and it still hurting afterwards :(

My cholesterol was a little bit high when I started eating it, after a year it's the lowest it's been in years. I was wondering if there's cons/harmful effects if I keep eating it with normal cholesterol levels? Like fully replace butter for benecol.

I've been on norethindrone since January, i take it within 3 hours every time, haven't had a period since December, and the last time i took a pregnancy test was a week ago just because I do it every month since i don't get a period anymore. But today I found brown discharge and am concerned about it. The only time I've had spotting was during the first week of taking norethindrone so now I'm concerned its happening now and need reassurance 😭

Mine was peppermint marshmallow ( i still have it!) love the scent and how the jar looks

I (27f) started taking norethindrone at the end of January without complications until now. My breasts just started randomly hurting and burning for the last 2 weeks (which is a symptom I've never experienced during my period or had while taking other bc). I have a negative pregnancy test and a week before the pain i had a breast exam done during a physical and nothing was noted. I read that norethindrone side effects clear up after 3 months but I've been on it for 4 months and this side effect just started? Also to note I haven't had a heavy period in years and that my periods before norethindrone were just discharge (i was on simpesse)
