Question : Hi I started taking cerazette contraceptive pill. I have been on it for nearly 3 weeks. From the start I have been fealing nauseous. I had sexual intercourse 8 days after starting the pill without using a condom. I started the pill on the first day of my period as advise by the information leaflet. Im feeling a bit paranoid about pregnancy as the nausea is persistent.
