Do birth control pills always give bad side effects?

Question

I've heard they can cause weight gain, nasea, etc... What has been your experience with The Pill? yes, i know each person can respond differently. But overall did the side effects go away after a few weeks?? I just got a prescription for one (mircette). it is a low-dose pill. After all the horror stories, bad effects I've heard I'm getting nervous.. Any input/insight greatly appreciated. thx!!

Answer 1

I was on the pill and i only got kind of nauseas for about 2 weeks then that went away along with the mild headaches. Also i had weight gain your just more hungry but to help control that dont eat the much salty foods and that keeps bloating down. But the entire time i was on it i had extremly sore b***s and that never stopped for some reason. But my period was lighter and my body reacted different to it and i actually got cramps on it when i never had gotton them before.

Answer 2

i actually didn't get any side effects, and when i did they went away within two days

Answer 4

For me yes,I even vomited on them. I took Mircette and the generic Kariva. Ive tried others too. I just gave up. The worst ones were the nausea and the thirst. Those made me so thirsty and tired. Ive heard nuva ring is good though because it works a different way than the oral pill.
