Hi,

Your symptoms may be due to the pills your are taking. Actually birth control pills are advantageous with few side effects. It includes Spotting in between periods, breast swelling or tenderness, weight gain, stomach upset, nausea, mood changes, headaches and migraine. Usually, these side effects will reduce within few months of taking tablets. If still persists, consult your near by gynecologist for help.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
