I have been on ortho tri for about 2
months now and I am having side effects.
First I get headaches all the time, second
I am always constipated, and 3rd I have
completely lost my sex drive. My fiance
and I are used to having sex every day and
now I can go for a week with out it?
Could this be a side effect from the pill?
Are wedding is in about a month and I
want to be able to have sex on it.

Yes, these could be side effects from your
pill. Doctors recommend that you give it
there months, but if you are still having
headaches, you may want to switch your
pill. There is a pill out there that
wont decrease your sex drive and will not
give you headaches.

Side Effects... Posted: 01-12-04 22:48pm
I had the major headaches... The first
week. Now I dont get any side effects...
Except for the fact that my boobs enlarged
by 1 cup size, and... I gained in my
tummy.. I have had a better
sex drive, and its more pleasing...

I have been taking ortho ever since it
became available many years, I never had
any side effects, everyone reacts
differently, if your problem persist I
would change it,
