What Could Cause Chills,fever And Headaches?
I have been taking Lo Lo Estrin Fe for 5 days. Two days ago my glands became enlarged and I've been experiencing chills, acheyness, fever and now a slight headache. Could this be the birth control? Should I stop cold turkey or should these symptoms pass on their own if I wait it out?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your fever, chills and headche are not due to birth control pills.
you should continue with your drugs.
It can be due to malaria, urinary tract infection or viral fever.
You should go for complete blood count, malarial parasites test and urine analysis.
