Breast ache and cramps on birth control?
For a the past few days since I finished my period about a week ago, I've had cramps and breast soreness and I am not sure why. I am on birth control and have been taking it daily since I started (I just started my 3rd pill pack this week). I had unprotected sex only once since starting the pill but that was only a few days ago. Is there any reason I could be experiencing these symptoms? Can birth control give you side effects after not a full 3 months of using it even though it hasn't before?
Yes birth control pills do this type of symptoms
But since you had unprotected sex in between you should check for pregnancy test too . As you may be pregnant .
Next Steps
Check for pregnancy
