What Causes Nausea,dizziness And Weight Gain While On Duoluton?

A few months after my son was born 5th October, 2012), i started having very heavy flows during my periods. Also they were coming out in huge clots. I have been advised Duoluton l by my doctor which is supposed to be taken from the 5th day of my periods till 21 days for 3 cycles.. I have started having the medicine and today is the 3rd day but i am feeling nausea and dizziness. i had the medicine in the morning after breakfast at around 11.15 am. I am also a little worried about gaining weight (though i am hardly overweight now after childbirth. Is it common to feel like this and are there any chances of gaining weight if the medicine is taken for such short period..

Weight gain is the common effects of hormone pill which being used for the menses purpose, the question is not for the short duration of treatment but the main concern is starting the therapy with such pill even if is taken for one cycle of menses, regular exercise can reduce the weight to some extent, hope this information helps you have nice day.
