Osphena side effects

Posted , 3 users are following.

I have been taking Osphena (hormone pill) for a month.  Suddenly yesterday I had muscle pain in my lower back.  I thought I was fine taking Osphena since I had no issues for a month.  Any advice is appreciated.

    Could it be unrelated? Could you have just pulled or strained a muscle?

      Hi,

      I don’t think so.  The muscle pain is in the entire lower back and hips.  I had a reaction similar to this when I was on cholesterol medication.  I had to stop it and switch to fish oil.  I am seeing my chiropractor tomorrow and I have an appointment with my GYN next Tuesday.  I did have a cystoscopy done last Friday.  She said the bladder was perfect but the vagina was terrible!  I think I will ask the GYN for an estrogen cream rather than the Osphena.  I am using the coconut oil and baking soda site baths.  At least I can function somewhat normally .  Hope you are doing better.
