I started a new low dose birth control
pill on 23 July and had nausea and
vomitting within 30mins of taking my pill
each morning on 24, 25 and 26 July. I went
to my doctor on 27 July and he said to
just continue taking the pill. He gave me
some antibiotics and tablets for nausea. I
started bleeding on 24th July and it
stopped yesterday. I assume that must have
been like a period? Or withdrawal bleed
since I stopped taking the pill?? I have
been so sick of feeling sick on the pill
and haven't taken my pill since obviously
last Tuesday 24th (when I had the nausea
and vomitting). Does this mean that
because for the last 9 days I haven't
taken my birth control pill, I am now
ovulating again as I felt this lump in my
ovary area and have had some cramping and
pain in my left ovary area.

Well, yes you could be ovulating again.
You aren't protected against pregnancy.
Nausea is common with pills for some
people, and if you really can't stand it,
I'd try switching to a different pill and
see if that helps. It may take a few
months for that side effect to wear off,
so you may have to stick it out. However,
if you are throwing up after you take your
pill, it is not effective. So you should
probably switch.
Your period may be really weird from
starting and stopping the pill, so don't
freak out if it is doing weird stuff.

I would suggest trying to take the pill at
a different time of day. Some women get
sick if they take it in the morning,
others get sick if they take it at night.
