Headaches and the Pill

Has anyone else experienced headaches while on the Pill? I've been on Ortho Tri cyclen lo dose for about 7 weeks and experienced mild to moderate headaches a few times a week. I never got headaches in the past, so i am curious if this is the reason why they've started. Thanks.

If you've really never gotten headaches in the past, even if these are minor, it is something to worry about. I would make an appointment with your doctor. The pill is most likely causing these and it is not a good idea to be on it, even if these headaches would go away with time. Any headaches that start up right after beginning the pill are worrysome, even if they are not migraine-grade. I hope you find relief soon!
