I went off of Ortho tricyclen lo a month ago and since then my lower abdomen has been increasing drastically. I look pregnant. I got my period on time and even took a pg test(negative). Should I be concerned? I have not put on pounds just size. I've been very hungry lately and I've had a headache for a week now. I don't understand how i can get only get larger in one small area, and not gain a pound. Please help. I'd like to avoid a doctor unless someone knows it's could be serious. Thanks.

I'm 21, and married. I don't have any pain, but I do feel like when you eat too much and your stomach feels stuffed.

This symptom is common with the use of birth control. However, upon discontinuing "the pill, " I don't believe this is one of the usual signs of your body getting adjusted to getting off the pill and adjusting to the difference in hormone level.

You better check with your Doctor. Headache, however, is one of the known side effects upon discontinuing the pill.

Nevertheless, there are some screening you should undergo e.g. for ovarian cancer, anyway. Because ovarian cancer is usually not discovered until it had spread to bowel and liver.

Factors associated with a reduced risk of ovarian cancer include: giving birth to more than one child, breast-feeding, tubal ligation (female sterilization), and use of birth control pills. Symptoms may be fatigue, low-grade fever, pelvic cramping, abdominal bloating, gas, and aches and pains in her upper thighs and legs.

Hope this answers your question!

How old are you? I have almost the same problem as you do. Do you have pelvic pressure? It could be PCOS.
