Risk Factors

Common side effects of oral contraceptives:

• Between-period spotting – When vaginal bleeding occurs between menstrual cycles, it is known as breakthrough bleeding or spotting. It may appear as though there is faint bleeding or a brown discharge.
• Nausea – Some people suffer slight nausea when taking the tablet for the first time, although this usually goes away within a few days.
• soreness in the breasts – Breast tenderness is a common side effect of birth control tablets, especially when they are first started.
• Migraines and headaches – Hormones found in birth control tablets can trigger or exacerbate headaches and migraines.
• Obesity – Weight gain is frequently listed as a possible adverse effect of birth control tablets, yet research has yet to establish this.
• Mood swings – Hormones have a significant impact on one’s mood and emotions. Changes in hormone levels, which may occur due to taking the pill, might impact a person’s mood.
• Missed periods – Taking birth control tablets might lead to irregular periods or no periods at all. This is due to the hormones included in them.
• Reduced libido – Some people’s libido, or sexual desire, may be affected by the pill. Hormonal shifts are to blame.
• Discharge from the cervix – When using the pill, you may notice changes in your vaginal discharge. This might be due to a change in the natural lubrication of the vaginal canal or a change in the naturopathic lubrication of the vaginal canal.
