When using Mykrogynon hormonal tablets, water collects in my body, I feel swollen as if I gained a few kilograms, my ankles swelled. Is it normal for this to happen, or should I stop using this medication.

I understand that you mean the Microgynon 21 contraceptive pill. No, the accumulation of water in the body is not a normal phenomenon when using this medicine. This is a side effect that affects some patients. If the occurrence of this side effect is bothersome for you, you can stop taking the medicine. Please note that side effects of medicines should be reported to your doctor or individually. By reporting side effects, you help other patients, including your loved ones, who may also need the same medicine one day. This step also allows you to gather more information on the safety of medicinal products and update data on them.
