Hi,
Oral contraceptive pills can often lead to side effects like nausea, abdominal pain, and periodic monitoring of liver function, sonograms to look for the development of any ovarian cysts etc. is necessary. To confirm the cause, you need to have a proper clinical evaluation and also get investigated. If it is deemed that the pill is causing the effect, it should be changed and a suitable alternative should be supplemented. Micro-pills are often helpful in such situations. Hope this helps.
