Hi,

Thank you for positing your query.

Oral contraceptive pills contain hormones, such as oestrogen and progesterone. These are known to aggravate migraines as well as headaches. So, it is possible that your headaches could be related to the pills you have used.

As of now, you can take diclofenac tablets for pain relief. However, if headache persists, please consult a neurologist.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing you good health,
