A member asked:
Bloating, lower abdominal pain at the end of week 3 on birth control.. about to start inactive pills on wednesday... is this common? this is my first time ever on birth control pills?

BC pills: While bloating isn't unusual in the first few months of starting birth control pills, I would be concerned about actual pelvic or lower abdominal pain, especially if there's associated tenderness. I recommend notifying your gynecologist about this symptom and getting examined if the symptom is still present.
