Acid: It sounds like you have a strong gag reflex. Whenever you vomit, that is stomach acid coming out which can vary in color but yellow is common. This is a concern and you should consult a dentist on proper brushing technique to avoid this. Frequent vomiting can lead to bleeding in the throat and other long term consequences. Use a mouthrinse called act to prevent tooth destruction from acid.

Brushing: Please see your Dentist to review your brushing technique. Sounds lie you may be inadvertently placing y0ur toothbrush where it can stimulate your gag reflex.
