"using junel 1/20 to prep for ivf. i have been off birth control for two years.

i took junel with food, and before bed, to help avoid nausea. i woke up a couple hours later in the middle of the night with moderate nausea and aches, but no vomiting. the next night, i took it with food, before bed, and with ibuprofen. woke up in the middle of the night with minor headache and very mild nausea- not even close to vomiting, just a slight stomachache. after the second night, no nausea or aches. i continued to take with food before bed, and took ibuprofen for two more nights just in case.

i think my body just wasn&#039;t used to birth control after two years of no hormones."
