Headaches after BCP?

in Trying to Get Pregnant

Does anyone else get headaches like 24/7 since coming of BCP?  I feel like I always have a headache since I came off the pill.  At first I thought it was because of the car accident I was in but the chiropractor says that my back and neck are fine and has closed my PIP case for my car accident.  I?m on cycle number 3 and the only thing I can think of is because of going off birth control.

    Yes I had headaches for a month after stopping bcp!! It was bad, I think it's because your body gets used to all the hormones.

    I have noticed an increase in the amount of headaches that I have had since coming off BCPs. When I first went off, I had a headache almost everyday for 2 weeks. I wouldn't necessarily say mine are now related to coming off the pill though since I've been off them for 13 months.

    I had headaches, among other symptoms, after coming off BC (Nuva).  My body is still out of wack and that was more than 4 months ago!

    I had really bad headaches, but only about the first week off of BCP and then they went away. Maybe mention them to your doctor if they keep continuing...

    Yes, I had bad headaches for the first month after I came off the pill.  This month they're much better, though.

    I stopped last week, and I've had headaches two of the four days since, but it's also AF.  I hope it doesn't continue past this week!

    I am also on cycle 3 off BCP.  I have a history of migraines though and have had them since I was 15.  I haven't had problems with them for quite a while.  I am starting to get them again which upsets me.  I don't have them every day but more often than I used to.  I was wondering if it was from the hormonal changes after BCP.  I am keeping track of my migraines on fertility friend though to see if maybe there is a patten.  I hope yours get better!
