Hi,

Progyluton is known to have headache as a side effect. It does not cause breast tenderness. Pregnancy is possible while on Progyluton pill. If you have breast tenderness, please check for pregnancy (hot test), if hot test is positive, stop the pills and consult your gynecologist.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hi

Breast tenderness,headache,nausea and abdominal cramps are common side effects with progyluton.If the side effects persists even after using for three to four cycles,kindly visit your gynaecologist for alternate drug.Many low dose and newer contraceptive pills like desogesterol are available which has lesser side effects can be tried.

Hope that was helpful.Let me know if i can assist you further.
