What Causes Menstrual Cramps And Weight Gain While On Elleste Duet?
Hi I am taking Elleste Duet 2mg tablets, I now have period pains every time I am on my period, which I did not have before, also I have gained weight, can this tablet make you gain weight ? Is this some kind of pill, for instance to stop you getting pregnant ? I know its not a contraception but does it kind of work in the same way ? Thanks Angela

Hello,
As first-line management, you can take drugs like mefenamic acid for pain relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult a gynaecologist and plan for an ultrasound scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
