Exclamation Q about bcp,headaches & spots

Hi everyone,

This is my 4th day on bcp. Its my first cycle on them and from the first day i started getting headaches (i never usually have headaches). Its the 4th day and they just don't seem to want to go away. I also noticed today that i've got a couple of spots on my chest and on my face, and as far as i know i've never had spot before. Maybe one or two when i got my first period, that was it! I never even got spots as a teen, now i'm not ready to deal with them.

I want to know if this could be because of the bcps? or maybe just from PCOS?

The only symptom i have of PCOS is the cysts and no periods. So what i want to know now is if the bcps are doing this to me or is the PCOS?

I hope someone can answer my question. Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Emma

If you can find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere.

If it started when you started the BCPs, its most likely it. Acne is a symptom of PCOS, but it will take time for the BCP to adjust to your system, usually a month so perhaps the extra hormones are just giving your body a little jolt creating such things to occur. I am a little concerned about the headaches you are having, usually they arent a good sign. You should go see your doctor about that. Good luck!

ever since I was switched from Yasmin to Loestrin FE for contenious BCP to rid a cysts I've been having problems for 2 months now with headaches. I would say something and get help. they stopped my BCP but I'm still getting headaches so my OB/GYN states it's not the BCP I was on. well what is it then??

<hugs> I know your pain...
