Placebo wk, 2nd month of bcp. i have a heavy flow and since it isnt a real period is it still normal to be nauseous, tired, etc? bleeding=not pregnant rite?

Usually: In general, as long as you get bleeding during the placebo pills, that means that you're not pregnant. I suspect there is something else causing the nausea, tiredness.
