Welcome to EmpowHER. These symptoms might be due to the change of birth control. The most common side effects of the birth control pills include nausea, headache, breast tenderness, weight gain, irregular bleeding, and mood changes. These side effects often subside after a few months' use. Scanty menstrual periods or breakthrough bleeding may occur but are often temporary, and neither side effect is serious. It's best to see your doctor and let him know of your symptoms.
