i lost my bc and started my new pack a week early. my period the next week was light and lasted for about 3 weeks. then a week after the bleeding stopped, when i was supposed to get my next period, i didnt get it and started to feel nauseous everytime i ate. is this just my body reacting to the pill mixup or...?

Why did you get a period the next week? Shouldn't you have only been in week 2 of the new pack? If you were, then you did not get a period; you had "spotting". Of course it was light; you were on active pills which prevent periods.

So then during the next placebo week you didn't get a period?

Did you ever miss any pills due to losing them?

Nausea and birth control are related but only if it's a normal side effect for you. It's possible that the effects of the hormones is causing the nausea. Did you take two pills the day you started to make up for the day you missed?

Not really, not from one missed pill. The only way would be ifyou lost the pills within the first week of your pack.
