Good day I am a 19 year old female. I am facing weird symptoms. I had early minor cramps for a week before I got my periods on the 11th. I took one of the 28-days contraceptive pill (microlenyn) for the first time in my life on the 9th. The next day on the 10th I woke up feeling okay with minor cramps but on the 11th my periods started and I had heavy cramps I felt nauseous to the point of not eating anything and I vomited till my ribs hurt, I didn't take any medication except for ibuprofen. On the 12th I woke up not feeling better, I still nauseous and I vomited only later during the day I started feeling a little bit better but at night after I had tried to have dinner it started again but I didn't vomit I only had a headache and the cramps were still heavy. On the 13th I woke up feeling better. I would like to know if what I experienced was because of the contraceptive pill or something else.

Some do get nausea vomiting with oral contraceptive pills and for most of them it gets settled with continuous use in couple of months. But whether it is because of contraceptive or other reason can be decided only by examining doctor.

Well this can be an adverse effect of the contraceptive pill, I think you should stop taking it and consult with your gynaecologist.
