Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.

Often times doctors prescribed birth control pills to help to regulate a woman's menstrual cycle. How long have you been taking birth control pills?
It does take time for your system to adjust. You may experience side effects for at least 3 - 4 months.
Common side effects are nausea, weight gain, spotting between periods, sore breast and/ or mood changes. More serious side effects are abdominal pain, chest pain, severe headaches, eye problems or blurred vision.

I would discuss the side effect of the headaches you are experience with the doctor who prescribed the birth control pills.

Be well,
~Gillette
