Not a typical effect: Thank you for the question. This is not a typical side effect of the pill, but it is not out of the realm of possibilities. It sounds like this was already a problem before starting the pill, so i can believe that it might have made it worse. Consider taking the pill at a different time of the day. If you take it at night, take it in the morning instead. If this does not work, change pills!
