Taken Lutera Post Sex, Shivering, Head Rushes, Unable To Sleep, Nausea. Normal Side-effects?
Hi. I m an 18 year old female. I have never been sexually active and have never been on any form of contraceptive until last night. I took Lutera at around 10 pm and got a shaky sensation. My heart started feeling better and I got a rush to my head. I could not sleep and I have been shaky ever since. Now it is thirteen hours since I ve taken the pill and I am still shaky. Is this normal? The shaky sensation is like that of chills right before you get a fever . Asides from that I just have nausea but that s normal. Still, is feeling shaky normal? Please help!

hi,
with Lutera, which is a combined oral contraceptive pill,
dizziness, nervousness, head ache etc side effects are reported with this,
your problem may also be one of its uncommon side effects,
if it subsides soon need not worry,
if it persists or increases in severity better to visit local gynecologist get examined. if needed change the pill.
take care.
