A member asked:

Headache on day1 of contraceptive pill..what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Too soon: It's too soon to consider a connection between this medication and the headache. Drink lots of water and rest and speak to your MD if the symptoms continue. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/chronic-daily-headaches/in-depth/headaches/ART-20046729
