I just switched to Ortho tri-cyclen from Lo ovral not too long ago...Probably been taking Ortho tri-cyclen for about 4-5 days so far. I know it's too early to see how my body adjusts to the change, but I am noticing more trouble sleeping and when I wake up, I feel kind of nauseous and my stomach hurts. No other obvious side effects, but those are pretty apparent since the change. I take the pill at around 8:45-9:00 every night (after dinner), so I'm not sure if I need to actually take the pill with food or wait to go to sleep or what. Anyway, maybe it'll just go away in the next month once I get used to it...who knows. Any insight would help. Thanks.

im on OTL-lo
and for the first couple months i had the same deal like ur having.. i take mine at 9am every morning.. and i do get stomach pain. i dont eat anything before it. .. and ive been on it almost 8 months..
i was jittery and anxious.. it was kind of annoying really.. im thinkin of switching to YAZ... i heard theirs less bloating and stuff when u start ur period.. the week b4 my period ( my dark blue pills) i get the worst pms. and its soooooooo annoying! its all common tho.. at least what my dr told me.. like i said.. goin on 8 mo. and i still get tummy aches. when i started taking it, i couldnt work out i felt like crap.
