Five days ago I started taking ortho tri cyclen lo after being off birth control for over a year. Then today I started having nausea, cramping, and diarrhea. I hadn t taken the pill yet today when this happened. Could this be from the birth control?

Hello .
Thank you for your question.
The symptoms can be due to the pill as the active drug agents in the pill are known to have such side effects.
However in my opinion you can continue the pill and discontinue in case the symptoms are unbearable.
I find this answer helpful
