I am also on Ortho tricyclen lo and my first couple of months I experienced the same side effects as well as back pains, head aches, and nausea!. Most of the side effects should subside after 3 months of use!. I also typically get my period with the 3rd placebo pill, so you may be getting your period within the day!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
I just recently went off of ortho tricyclen lo!. I experienced cramps when i was on it and I never did before!. I was on it for about two years, and for the first few months my period came after the 3rd green pill, then the 4th and then on the day of the 5th!. I had some weight gain on it, and my boobs got bigger, but now that I am off of it, my side effects are greater!. I used to have perfect skin before and on it, but now I am breaking out like crazy, unless you need it for pregnancy protection, than I would not recomend being on it!. I was on it for my heavy periods and it was not worth it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
