Varies: Some women cannot tolerate the pill, but those women usually have persistent symptoms while taking the pill. What you describe is probably not related to the pill. Some variation in how you feel (headaches, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, changes in appetite, etc) may be due to your diet or to other environmental influences. You would have to stop your pill to see if your symptoms improve.
