Hi there ,
Thanks for your query.
Sudden pain in calf region in known contraceptive users , a possibilty of Deep vein thrombosis , blood clot in leg veins has to be ruled out. Usually it will be assocaited with swelling of leg.
I suggest you to visit a surgeon for clinical examination and get vein Doppler test done to rule out the same.
