HI, I understand our concern. THe oral contraceptives need to be taken regularly.. a break in between leads to hormonal imbalance & breakthrough bleeding.IN such conditon you restart the pill on 2nd day of your menses , got nauseous .. now if you stop again the period will not stop on scheduled time.. as irregular hormonal intake must have lead to hormonal imbalance.. so the bleeding pattern will also be disturbed.. may be a prolonged one / may be stops for awhile & then restarts again. You need to observe it / use barrier contraceptive till then & go for- - Oral contraceptives with a doctor's advise along with pills to avoid nausea ( Ranitidine/metoclopramide )for few days .. till your body gets adjusted to the hormones & nausea stops. OR - go for IUD after your next periods. Thanks.
