A member asked:

Do you still get premenstrual symptoms such as cramps and sore breast a week-two before your period even when on birth control pill.ortho tri cyclenlo?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely, no: A week or 2 before your period is a little early to get pre-menstrual symptoms. It's normal on the birth control pill to get some pre-menstrual symptoms, around the last week of the pill pack. There may be another reason for your symptoms. Or maybe you just started the pill? Sometimes when a woman just starts birth control pill there can be these side effects. Typically wears off 2-3months.
