Errin Side Effects, Overdose and Pregnancy Information

Errin is a synthetic form of female sex hormones produced naturally in the body called Progestin. These hormones suppress the pituitary glands activity thus hindering ovulation; alter the mucus at the cervix opening to prevent sperm from entering, and their variable levels play a vital role in fertility in women. However, since Errin contains only Progestin, it may be less effective than Progestin-Estrogen combinations. Mini-pills like Errin may cause irregular menstrual cycle.

Errin Side Effects

Errin side effects include abdominal pain, vaginal discharge, acne, fluid retention, bloating, blood clots, chest pain, hair loss, and headache. Other Errin side effects may include heart attack, high blood pressure, kidney problem, migraine, leg pain, nausea, sex drive changes, skin discoloration, stroke, vomiting, and weight gain or loss.
