After just starting my second cycle am I imagining it or does anybody else have joint stiffening. 
my knuckles and hip joints seem to be a little more painful when I move after sitting?

thanks

  • Hi . I found that my fingers used to feel tight and swollen when I woke up and I’d get like a cramping/numb feeling in my leg when walking but it wore off after a couple of days. It’s always worth mentioning at your next visit or ring your helpline if it gets worse?

    Take care

    Hi Juzz,

    Not so much joint pain as muscle spasms...

    calf muscles were twitching a lot in the first 2 days, leaving wakening up with 2 sore legs, but it’s eased a bit now thank goodness!

    & my thumb sorta spasmed sitting at a weird angle (again this has eased) Raised hands
