Stopped Taking Birth Control, Headache, Abdominal Pain, Cramps. Help?

I have recently stopped taking birth control . It s been about 3 weeks. Since then, I have had frequent urination , headaches , abdominal pain , cramping, and no period. I have also had a slight fever for the past 2 days. I went to the doctor today and after a series of tests, they ruled out any STD s, pregnancy, or infections, but the pain is still there. Is this due to me stopping the pill or should I get a second opinion?

Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Birth control pills are actually hormonal pills. Over a period of time our body gets used to them and sudden withdrawal of these pills may lad to this kind of symptoms in certain ladies. Take some time. Drink plenty of water. Take some rest. If headaches are troubling then you can take acetaminophen.
It may take 1-2 weeks but then you will be fine.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
