On birth control. Missing periods. Pregnancy test negative. Nose started bleeding. Is it due to birth control?
Patient: My girlfriend has been on birth control for the past 3 months. She hasn t had her period in 40+ days but has had 3 home pregnancy tests show up negative at the 10 days late, 20 days late, and 40 days late marks accordingly. She s had 2 random nosebleeds in the past 2 days but no signs of pregnancy. Could it be due to the birth control? Doctor: Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The random nose bleeds can be due to the hormonal pills also. But it is best to rule out the local causes like dry nose or infections after a proper examination.I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
