    I was never on any BCP until about a week ago. I had taken provera a few times just to have my period. But when I start the BCP I did have some side effects as well. But mine were more of a stomach pain every so often.
    I would go ahead a see if you continue to feel that way and then if the feelings don't go away in the next day or two i would call your dr.
    Sorry I wasn't a better help.

    I personally was not fond of Tricyclen Lo. Although it did not make me as moody as Tricyclen and Demulen, I was still pretty cranky/crappy and hypersensitive.

    As for dizziness... I have felt that, but it's usually associated to my tension headaches and work stress (very stressful job). I still get them, so I would not say it's a side effect of Tricyclen Lo for me.

    Hey Runawaylove,

    the side effects should go away. They happen any time your PH is messed with and hormones on top of it can make it SO annoying! Hang in there! Hopefully in a week or so, the side effects will go away..

    Does anyone ever feel extremely tired.
    I have been on the pill for about a month now and I can't stop being tired. Can't wake up in the morning, I then by noon I want to go home. I am ready for bed. I am more lazy than ever, and I eat like I have never eaten before. I want to shop. My boobs are sore, and I have been on my period for about a month now. I don't know if I really am just tired or it this is a side effect. Does anyone know?? These feelings are so new to me, I don't know how to get them under control. I don't like being so exausted.
