I too feel like I am retaining an awful lot of water. All of a sudden I couldn't get my jeans zipped. This is very upsetting to me. I hate feeling this way. I am in the third week of my second month and bleeding steadily. Any exertion seems to make it gush. I hate this. First Nuva Ring made me bleed for 11 straight days Now Ovacon is making me gain weight I am taking it for PCS but I don't think it's working. I also am having intense abdominal cramping if I do sit ups.

I have been taking Ovcon for 3 weeks now and have started having abdominal cramping and irregular bleeding. Is this a concern or will it go away?

I've been on Ovcon 35 for 5 months. I had no problems with breakthrough bleeding until this month. I've been bleeding for 3 weeks! I've also had many of the other side effects mentioned by many others on this site- pain in legs, Abdominal cramping, fatigue, bloating, mood swings. I WILL be stopping these pills today. I'm 43 years old and recently married. No plans for children so my husband is getting a vasectomy. Until I read the side effects posted by other people who have taken OvCon 35, I thought I might have something seriously wrong with me but now I'm sure it's the pills! The FDA needs to take a closer look at what these pills are doing to the woman taking OvCon 35!
