question: Hi, I'm 30 year old married female. On Femilon as OC since last 1.5 years. I've been suffering from occasional headaches. Period was regular before I started Femilon, but the I used to suffer terrible pain on the 3rd day... so much so that it hindered normal day-to-day routine. After starting Femilon, the pain disappeared & bleeding has lessened too. I'd like to conceive within next 3-4 months, and hence have to stop taking Femilon, but I dread that those 3rd day pain will start all over again. Please advise.
