Anyone feel queasy after starting the pill again?

So I'm only on day 2 of my period, hence pill number 2 of low-dose Mercilon. I took the pill about 8.30am and I've gradually been feeling more queasy. In fact it reminds me of early morning sickness!

I seem to recall after going back on the pill 10 years ago feeling queasy for about 3 weeks. After this all symptoms disappeared and i was fine on it. But I have 2 young DC's now and don't want to feel like this another second!

I am beginning to question my decision to go back on it. I shunned Cerazette as all the horror stories put me off. But my skin has been getting increasingly bad and I was told this pill will help (the pill always helped my skin before). I am nearly 40 and despite my Dr being fine about prescribing this for me I am also beginning to fret about the added health implications and risks.

Anyone else have a similar experience of nausea?

I've just started microgynon again after having ds2, I haven't had any nausea or any side effects at all. Perhaps its worth trying another pill with slightly different ingredients.

Yep! On it past two weeks and 2 days. First time on pill in 3 years and 8 wks since DC2 born. I feel like i am pregnant again! Nausea the past few days, spotted past two days. I am praying this is normal and to ride out for the next couple of months. GP said he would change it then if it didnt agree with me. On Cileste btw.
