Hi,
Nur-Isterate is a contraceptive injection that contains the hormone progestin, which is used to prevent pregnancy. However, some women may experience side effects while using it. The most common side effect is irregular bleeding or spotting between periods, which can occur in up to 50% of women during the first year of use.
Frequent urination and movement in the tummy are not typical side effects of Nur-Isterate, but they could be related to other health conditions. Frequent urination could be a symptom of a urinary tract infection or a bladder problem, while movement in the tummy could be related to digestive issues or other gastrointestinal problems.
Sore nipples could also be a side effect of Nur-Isterate, or it could be related to other hormonal changes in the body. It is important to talk to your healthcare provider about your symptoms, as they can help determine the cause and recommend appropriate treatment. They may also advise you to undergo further testing or switch to a different contraceptive method if necessary.
If you require a personalized response, kindly use the Ask A Doctor service and post a follow-up. Take care. Hope I have answered your question.
