Microgestin 1/20 & Leg Pain: Potential Blood Clot Concerns?


Question
Hello, I just started taking microgestin 1/20. I've only taking it for 2 days so far but have been experiencing twicthing/throbbing in my leg. Im a little paranoid. This is the first time i've taken any birth control in my life, Im 21 years. I mostly noticed it on my left leg and now today ive discovered a tender area on my left upper arm when pressed. Is i possible to have blood clots after 2 days? im really worried. I once had a small surface clot in my right leg that cleared up in a few days, it was months ago.that might be relevant.

thank you

Answer
Hello Donicea,

I think you might have sent me this question already. Let me know if you have heard from me. I would have recommended going off this birth control because of side effeects. So let me know.
You can email me at CHERYL51@aol.com
Hope to hear from you soon.
