Does Contraceptive Pills Cause Nausea?
Hello, thank you for your time. The past 2 weeks I ve been overcome with waves of nausea on a daily basis. The mornings are generally fine until I brush my teeth, just having a toothbrush in my mouth has made me vomit. Through out the day, the nausea would get worse then get better. When it does hit me bad its completely out of my control. I need to vomit then and there. Also, I have trouble focusing on what people are telling me and I feel very distant to my surroundings. My head feels either light or very stuffy and my body would suddenly be overcome with hot flushes, mainly after ive just vomited. I m 22 and I m not pregnant. Current medication Im taking is the contraceptive pill Logynon Ed which I have been taking for abit over a year, with breaks in between.

Hello madam, from the history you have given, well hormonal pills do cause side effects like nausea, break through bleeding, breast tenderness and so.This is because of progesterone hormone.But in case if the nausea is severe or there is heavy bleeding, or the symptoms are getting worse than you may have to consult your gynaecologist.hope I was helpful to you.
