kitshalleen Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 hi everyone,i can't tolerate a birth control pill with estrogen in it, because i have horrible headaches, so now i am on norethindrone (which is progestrin only). anyway, i'm very, very light-headed on it having trouble staying awake at all. i've only been on it for about 12 days. i also just started spotting and having cramps. i'm just wondering if there's any chance that these side effects will get better. i'm almost bed-bound.thanks so much!kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliegee Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 Hi Kit,They didn't for me. I was so dizzy and out-of-it. My BP was 70/40 when I was on progesterone. I lasted 3 weeks and never took it again.
