Hi, I am 18 year old female and am taking the pill. For the last few days I have had a stiffness and sharp bursts of pain in my thigh which start from the upper knee. They last for a few seconds but have been becoming more frequent and happen when I m sitting, standing, walking or lying down.

It is not related to pill for sure. I would suggest you to tke Brufen if pain is very severe, most probably it is muscle spasm and soon it will be completely relieved. Hot water fomentaion will also help.
