I started the birth control pill Yasmin two days ago. I have not been sleeping + nausea + dizziness for 2 days. Is this normal?

Hello Ma'am,
Nausea is possible at the beginning of taking this medication. They cease on their own in less than 2 weeks usually.
As for the difficulty in sleeping, I am surprised about that. Is it because you have heartache in the evening?

No. I have been waking up for the past 3 nights with a stomach ache, like I am bloated and about to explode. Something that never happened to me before. It keeps me up at night.

Thanks for the information.
What time do you take your pill?

Here it is :)
It should be taken in the morning, at least for the first month.
I would recommend taking it tonight as usual, then taking another tomorrow around noon, then starting Thursday we take it in the morning when we get up (first thing when we get up).
We should have improvement in the symptoms you describe. :)
