I've NC for this. Regular poster. Just started a new relationship. Used condoms but I'm a huge worrier and thought I had reason to suspect possible failure of them. So I went and got map, levonelle. No reaction at all. Now, almost a week later I feel nauseated and dizzy most days. Odd stomach cramp too. Too early to be pregnancy related.

Anyone else experience this at all? Starting to get a bit panicked.

Yes, and don't worry. Nausea and dizziness are really common side effects and can start any time from when you take it until your period arrives (which can be up to a nail-biting, nerve-wracking 5 days late).

Thank you, that is reassuring. Yes I'm already a nervous wreck despite honestly thinking there was no need to actually take it. Taking no chances and all that. Thank you for replying auntiestella
