I just started the contraceptive pill Loette, are these side effects normal?
Yes, these are all hormonal effects and are normal with any contraceptive pill. Just try to be as regular as possible with taking them, and if the side effects continue too long or if they are too disruptive to your life, talk to your doctor about other options. When and if your doctor prescribes a different pill you should ask him/her about the switch-over, but it should be as simple as when you get to the end of your current package, you would then pick up with the new package (just as if you were starting a new package of the same pill). The vast majority of these pills have the same ingredients in only slightly different dosages, so the switch should be fairly uncomplicated. Good luck!
