I've been on Ovcon-35 Tablets 28s for a few months now, and while it's been great for keeping pregnancy at bay, I've noticed some troubling side effects. I've been experiencing severe headaches and even some depression-like symptoms, which is really messing with my daily life. I've already tried reaching out to my doctor, but I'm curious if anyone else is having similar issues. The side effects are not really life threatening for me, but they're definitely affecting my quality of life. Anyone have any tips on how to manage these? Thanks!

I had terrible mood swings and my doctor suggested a different pill. I switched to Yaz and it was a game changer. I think sometimes our bodies just react badly to certain medications.

I actually took Ovcon-35 for a couple of years with no issues at all. Everyone's body is different, so it's hard to say what's causing your problems. Maybe try a different brand and see if it helps

I went through the same thing and ended up switching to a progestin-only pill. It’s been a lot easier on me.

I had bad headaches too, but they went away after a few months. It’s like your body just needs to adjust. But if it's been a while, definitely talk to your doctor.

I switched to a different birth control pill after experiencing severe headaches and dizziness. It's worth talking to your doctor about other options.

I've been on Ovcon-35 for a while and I've experienced some mood changes too. It's not fun, but my doctor told me it should get better over time. Hang in there!
