Throwing up every single time I drink alcohol, even if it's just 3 beers or a whole bottle of liquor. This never used to happen to me, I was able to drink just fine, I usually had a hangover with vomiting a LITTLE more often than my friends, but NEVER like this. I'm on ortho-cept right now but this was also happening while I was on Yasmin. I get violently hungover and ill, throwing up pretty much every 15 minutes for the majority of the day the next day after I have drank. It's the worst thing in the world. I don't usually throw up the night of drinking, but on new years I was throwing up all night and day too. Trying to figure out if the two are related, my mom, who's taken a psycho pharmacology class thinks they are, but my gynecologist looked at me like I was weird when I suggested the correlation. Been researching it a bit and I've seen quite a few articles from people with the same problem... STRONGLY considering ditching the birth control but I'm in a serious relationship and that's going to be risky.
HELP!!! I'm only 21, my drinking hasnt expired yet!
I'm 21 years old and on the birth control pill and throw up EVERY time I drink alcohol?

Hello marliynnn. Well you answered your own question in as much as stopping the birth control. I tryed to look up and find a definite reason. Both ortho-cept, as well as Yasmin, when drinking alcohol, increase the effects on your central nervous system as well as your blood levels. So theres that side effect. Time to change your method of birth control. Theres that option. Sorry but thats about all I can suggest.best to you.
