Headache after taking birth control pill.
-
Hello, I keep getting headaches, I am not sure if they're related. I have been taking a birth control pill for the last 3 months. What can be causing it? Is it related to birth control? Can the birth control pill cause headaches?

@roshi Hello, headaches are a birth control side effect, especially at first. The estrogen in combination with birth control can cause a sudden flurry in headache or migraine activity, but they tend to subside as your body gets used to the increased overall hormone levels. Both combination birth control pills and progestin-only pills may cause headaches as a side effect. Additional side effects of birth control pills may include breast tenderness. nausea. As your doctor to change pills. Thanks!!
