The number of packs you get depends on your insurance company more than anything else. While studies show that providing a full year reduces the risk of pregnancy more than providing one pack at a time, both commercial insurers and some Medicaid programs limit the number of packs you get at one time.

Took 5 birth control pills then 3 day later took 6 still bleeding?
You are taking way too much birth control pills at once, which is not good for your body at all. By taking that many pills at once, it is considered overdosing. By doing so, it will not stop any of our bleeding, however, it will make it worse because you are putting too much hormones in your body at once. The breakthrough bleeding will continue. If you miss more than 3 birth control pills, you must throw that pack of pills away and use a back up method such as condoms, until you start a new pack of pills. You are only suppose to take 1 birth control pill everyday at the same time, this is the only way for birth control to be 99.9% effective. Each pill that you miss you substantially reduce the effectiveness of the pill.

If you forget a couple of pills and you bleed slightly could you be spotting due to pregnancy or was your body starting its period?

I have masculine characteristics and my doctor told my i have too much testosterone and may need to go on birth control to fix my periods will that also fix like my muscular arms and small boobs?
i wouldn't think so birth control pills r just for extra protection when u have sex and u have less periods per year. Birth control pills will more than likely make things worse. Birth control pills don't just simply "fix chemical imbalances" they give you more types of hormones to "see" if your one of the ones that benefit from them. It's a gamble because of this. You should go consult with your OB about other "non hormonal" alternatives.
