Clicky: BC Pills

My prescription is finally being refilled, and I plan on asking the pharmacist for the okay to take 3 pills today (and waiting another 7 days until everything is safe for unprotected image), but I was wondering how long others have gone.  AND how nauseous 3 pills in 1 day made you.

  • 3 pills?!  That'll make your uterus fall out!

    Not really... but, dumping a heavy dose of hormones into your system can't be good. I'm sure it depends on the brand/dosage/type of pill you are taking. I don't think you should make decisions on what others have done. I've never missed a pill for a full 24 hours, so did not ever take more than 1. However, I tried a pill that was higher in something (I think estrogen) and it made me feel horrible. I had been on low-dose bc. Because of that barfy experience, I would be wary of increased hormone levels.

  • I never missed more than a day.  So, I've taken two, but I don't think at once.  Like I forgot to take one at night, remember and took it in the morning and then another that night.  Don't remember it making me sick.

    I went straight to depo. I knew, even back then, that I couldn't be trusted to remember to take a pill every day.

    This was me too. It wasn't bad enough to stop me from doing it again, but I would never take three.

  • F/U:  After speaking to my pharmacist, I will be taking 2 pills today and another 2 pills tomorrow.  3 pills in one day = no beuno

    I've missed more than 2 days, and did this too, lol. 

  • After taking 2 pills last night, I wasn't that nauseous.  I've always taken my pills at 8:00 pm, so just after dinner, so maybe that helps.
