Could Pirmella Birth Control Cause Migraine And Cold?

I have had a head cold for quite sometime. Furthermore, I ve been on birth control called Pirmella but never bled but only spotted the first day. Since last week, I ve yet started. I never have missed any pills but I take them at different times throughout the days. This morning I woke up with a migraine that has lasted the whole day accompanied nausea where I feel I have to eat every 3 maybe 4 hours. What is your opinion?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Oral contraception can affect some persons who suffer with migraines, if it is doing this to you then you would need to consider using an alternative form of contraception.

You can monitor to see if the migraines continue or opt to change medications immediately.

I hope this helps
