    Default the pill giving me morning sickness?

    It's weird, but ever since I got mono, taking my birth control pill gives me serious nausea. Like I take it right before bed, and all the next morning I feel sickish until about noon. And if I take it in the morning, the feeling is even more intense. I'm pretty sure the pill is the variable, because when I don't take it, I'm fine.

    I've been on the pill for six years, and the only time it's made me sick was when I took two pills too close together (SO pukey, eww...never made that mistake again). But now it's every time. I'm going to bring it up with my doctor. In the meantime I've just stopped taking the pill, or my other hormone pills (spironolactone for the pcos). It's weird. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Can you switch pills?

    This happens to me if I take my pill and then don't get enough sleep the next morning. I need at least 6 hours of sleep between taking and waking or I feel nauseous in the morning.

    That sucks that it just started happening now.

    Any time I took the pill I had to make sure I ATE.

    If I took it at bed time, I would definitely wake up nauseous. Maybe try eating something before you take it.

    ^ Agreed. Try eating something with it like crackers - that made a difference for me.

    Nothing helped with me. I've been on every pill they have and it all makes me sicker than a dog. I started taking it around 7pm and then when I thought i was starting to get sick knock myself out with sleeping pills. I seriously couldnt even go to school feeling as bad as they make me feel. Thats the only thing that works for me....

    All that said, I'm hoping to get mirena this month

    every pill makes me feel like puking the first few weeks i start it, and then randomly thereafter. one of the many reasons i stopped using "the pill".

    ask your doctor for a pill with a lower dose of hormones...i had to try a few different kinds before i found one that made me not want to die.

    Change Pills. You probably need a lower dose of hormones. I recommend Loestrin- worked like magic for years.

    Yup, a lower dosage and taking it with food or milk would help.

    The pill mimics pregnancy hormones to make your body think you're pregnant. Too much of those hormones gives you actual pregnancy symptoms, like morning sickness.

    Do you think it is possible that your stomach is still sensitive from being sick and that's wht the pills are bothering you?

    that's crazy... I've never heard of this happening before and yet it apparently happens to people all the time!
    I agree that the suggestion to try a lower dose harmone pill is a good idea, also check to see if you are taking a variable harmone pill or a stable harmone pill...
    If it is variable try switching to a stable or vice versa.... ??? GOOD LUCK!

    I think maybe. I've lost a lot of weight, and don't have much of an appetite. I stopped taking all my pills, actually, for that reason. I'll just have to wait for what the doctor says on Monday. But thanks to all for this input! I didn't know if it was a normal reaction or not, and i guess it is. Good to know!

    Try Cryselle. I love that pill. No weight gain or horrid side effects. Anything with a higher dosage gives me the morning sickness too. I also second taking any hormone pills with food.
