What Causes Cold Sweats And Nausea At Night ? Is It A Side Effect Of Birth Control Or Does It Indicate Pregnancy ?
Hello, I have recently started Tri- Cyclen birth control two weeks ago as of today. Yesterday i had full intercourse with my boyfriend and took one sip of alcohol two hours before taking my medication and laying down. I tend to stress a lot but last night i had cold sweats and the terrible feeling of wanting to throw up. Is it because of the birth control? Or am i pregnant?

Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
In the first few weeks , contraceptive pills are not very effective.However you have chances to be safe and not pregnant.The nauseating sensation could be due to alcohol .Please wait till you get your periods .If you miss your period , there could be chances of pregnancy .I advise you to visit your Gynecologist and discuss for further plan based on that.
Take care

Hello
Thanks for your query.
pregnancy don`t occur immediately after intercourse,especially when you are on birth control pills ,so it is not due to pregnancy .
It can be due to cold or some infection if it was an unprotected sex.
It is also not due to birth control pills.
If periods are delayed only than think of pregnancy.
