I am on the bc pill, Cyclessa. I've been on it since about November of last year. The first couple of months I had all sorts of side effects including increased outbreaks, dizziness, a little nausea, and sore joints. They said that would be normal until my body got used to it. On month three all my side effects were gone except the dizziness on week three. I still get dizzy on week three. Not like feels like I'm drunk dizzy but rather distracting dizzy. It isn't something I don't mind I just want to make sure. Is this normal? Should I consider switching bc pills?

if you're stressed, it could possibly NOT be the pill causing the dizziness. the reason why i'm saying this is because my sister has been on yasmin for a couple of years and last fall she was feeling dizzy all the time. she saw her doc who told her it's not because of the pill. she was so stressed out from planning her wedding. so talk to your doc and he/she will be able to tell if you should switch pills.

This sounds normal. When I first started my bc pills (Tri-Sprintec), it took about 5 months for my body to adjust to taking them. I had the same side effect that you have except the sore joints... I would talk to your doctor about the ongoing side effects and possibly switching brands.
