Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Cerezette is having desogestrol. It is female reproductive hormone.
All your symptoms are due to side effects of desogestrol.
It can cause abnormal fat deposition, weight gain, headache, bloating etc.
You need to follow diet plan and exercise regime to reduce extra fat and weight.
Take simple painkiller like paracetamol for headache.
Take pantoprazole and levosulperide combination on empty stomach twice daily for bloating.
Avoid hot and spicy food.
Don't worry, you will be alright with headache and bloating in 2-3 weeks.
Weight loss can be achieved over 2-3 months.
Better not to take desogestrol again.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
