Loss Of Appetite, Nausea, Frequent Urination. Taking Birth Control. Negative Pregnancy Test. Due To Pill?

Hello, I m a 30 yr old physically fit woman. I m experiencing a lack of appetite , nausea , frequent urination (getting up several times through night), and headaches. I started birthcontrol a little over a month ago. I wasn t great about taking the pill everyday, and I believe it threw off my period because it only lasted one day. I took a pregancy test 2 days later (I used protection), and it said negative, so I don t believe it s that. Is it possible the pill is creating these symptoms?

Hello
thanks for your query.
The symptoms described by you are attributable to birth control.
They would have been better had you taken the pill sincerely.
However, as you are not good with maintaining the schedule, it is better to substitute a different method of birth control.
If you fail to have your period within a week, consult a gynec to rule out other reasons such as thyroid hormone disturbance, polycystic ovaries etc.
All the best.
