Jenny, It may just be your body trying to adjust to the new pills. I have switched pills before and had the same kinds of problems but they went away after a few weeks. Ortho-cyclen did give me more headaches than usual so I eventually went off them and now take lo-ovral continuously. Since different kinds of pills have different levels of hormones, that could be causing your problems. I would go to my Doc (or find another one if you can't get in touch with yours) if this does not subside soon.

Hang in there! Amy
