New to birth control, having side effects!!

Side effects!?

Heya! I’ve been on the POP pill for coming up for 3 months now and I’m experiencing a few things I’m concerned about?

For reference, I’m currently recovering from ED and struggle with body dysmorphia, and ever since I began taking my pill I’ve been hungry ALL the time. Like, I’ve never had a huge appetite up until now.

Another thing is that I’ve noticed I’ve developed some water retention around my hip area and lower tummy. This is triggering my dysmorphia a lot which is a pain during my recovery. I wondered if these were totally normal things to have happen when on the mini pill?

Any advice would be sosososo appreciated, thanks guys!🌸
