WantToBeMom: YES!! I was on PIO for a little over 2 weeks and I definitely got dizzy/light headed. To be honest - I've been off it now for over a week and I'm still feeling it from time to time (and no, I'm not pregnant.) I also had the runs on the 2nd week and huge boobs. The runs stopped after 3 days off PIO but the boobs are still here. (But not painful anymore.)

Silly hormones!!

Yes, I got it while on PIO (pre-pregnancy) for FET and early on during pregnancy. It's normal and to be expected. I learned to not shower alone after one scare. After a few weeks, it did get better.

Good luck!
