These pills taken in emergency contraception hsve a high dose of hormones....and prostaglandin are released which are known to cause side effects like nausea bloating abdominal cramps...which is considered to be a normal side effect of the pill....so you need not worry about the vomiting. ....sometimes anxiety for pregnancy also causes this....but be sure that the pill would do its part and most likely pregnancy would not happen since you have taken the pill at the right time
