Can side effects occur when changing birth control pills?
Good morning, I have been taking Belara contraceptive pills for 6 months. When I went to another doctor, he changed my medication to Atyvia and I feel bad after them (abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, headaches, nausea). Should I go back to the previous pills or change to completely different ones? I have a visit to the doctor only for a month

The decision on which preparation you should use should be used by your doctor. We do not know the reason why the doctor decided to change the tablets. You also do not mention how long the ailments referred to in the question have been present. It is worth being aware that in the initial period of using contraceptive pills (usually up to 3 months), side effects occur more often. This is due to the fact that the body will adapt to hormonal changes caused by taking birth control pills. This may also apply to changing the contraceptive pills, which differ in the type and dosage of hormones. It is possible that another change of tablets in such a short period of time will contribute to the occurrence of side effects.
