I took a break from the contraceptive pill for a few months after having headaches but decided to go back on them as my periods got really heavy (preferred the headaches). Anyway since being back on the pill I have been really bloated and for the past few days have had terrible cramps and a bit of spotting. I'm so bloated that all my clothes are too tight and I look 6 months pregnant.

Could this just be due to the pill or could it be something else? Before I went on the pill I was getting similar cramps and after scans I was told I had a few cysts but also told they were nothing to worry about, the cramps last for a day, keep me awake and are agony, the. Usually followed by a dull ache for a few days and bloating, my gp thought it could be ovulation pain which is why I went on the pill.
