Although most women do not experience problems with Zovia, side effects are possible. Some of the common bothersome side effects that have been reported with birth control pills in general include nausea, headaches, and bloating. If you experience more severe side effects of Zovia, such as migraines, chest pain, or a sudden loss of vision, let your healthcare provider know right away.
As with any medicine, Zovia® (ethynodiol diacetate/ethinyl estradiol) can cause side effects. However, not every woman who uses it will experience side effects. In fact, most women tolerate it quite well. If side effects do occur, in most cases, they are minor and either require no treatment or are easily treated by you or your healthcare provider. Many of the common side effects of Zovia may improve within the first few cycles of use.
