Combined pill is this normal?

I started taking the pill 3 months ago and I have only just started getting side effects of it feeling sick, cramps, between period bleeding, increased appitte, hot flushes, moodyness, irritability, more frequent urination, constipation, diarrhoea, headaches and tender breasts.

I was taking it on time for the first two months but took a few late in the third month and missed 1 day.

Is it normal to only start getting these side effects after 3 months of taking the pill?

Sounds like you should talk to your gp about trying a different pill. I had the same problem as you and continuing to take the pill made the symptoms worse.

Not what you're looking for?
