I don't know the cause
but I got off my birth control after 2yrs
and change because I started getting these
migraines and headahes as side effects I
was on cyclessa...Its probably a side
effect of the BC..Talk to your doctor
about it k...Hope you get better..

I had a lot of problems when I started the
combined pill, one of which was constant
headaches. It was established that it was
the oestrogen that wa causeing this and so
my doctor changed me to the mini-pill so
it may be that using a progesterone only
method of contraception (mini
pill/depro-provera/implanon/mirena) may
help.

You are being silly. There is nothing to
dislike or fear from doctors, they are
there to help you!
Go, get checked, and start feeling better!

No no no no no. Did he tell you that it is
estrogen that is causing the headaches?
Untill, he can tell you a definite as to
what is causing the headaches, you should
*not* get the shot. It is not reversable.
So you can not simply stop taking it if
you have a bad reaction. You should
probably try going off hormonal birth
control all together and see if that
changes you headaches. Then go from
there.
This is just my opinion.

Yea my doc did say that she thinks its the
estrogen giving me the headaches, so they
gave me a pill with low estrogen in it
Mercilon.

I can not have large amounts of estogen as
well. I started on depo. I hated it.
Horribly. However, everyones experience is
different. I then went to Avaine it is a
low dose pill as well. My next option was
something non hormonal. (which defeated
the entire purpose) Have you concidered
trying a diaphram or maybe Mirena (sp?).?
