i have been having sore and tender breast backache headache lots of dizziness fatigue and food craving for food that i dont like. i took birth control for a week and stopped taking it.

It is possible that is due to PMS symptoms. Experiencing such thing before your period is normal but if you constantly have this problem it is best to see a GYN.

Hi payge,

Welcome to EmpowHER. Not sure what your question was. But if you were taking birth control pills, that might be the cause for your symptoms. Here is a list of side effect of birth control pills. 

Once the Pills are stopped, a women can ovulate two weeks after.  Some of the things you might want to Keep track of: when you stopped the pill, have you had a period yet and if you were sexually active the weeks after stopping the pill.

Here's a link that might help.
