What if you took four birth control pills at one time?

That's a normal thing to do if you're using the birth control pill for emergency contraception. (Only certain birth control pills can be used in this way, and the doses differ depending on the pill.) If you're just trying to make up for missed pills, taking four at a time has no benefit, and is likely to cause nausea and vomiting.

I missed my period so I stop taking loestrin birth control pills?

The instructions that come with your birth control usually tell you not to stop taking the pill. However, you could still be pregnant. You should take a pregnancy test or call your doctor for a pregnancy test just to make sure you are not pregnant. If you do not take your pill at the same time everyday or misses doses, you may be pregnant. Either way, you should call your doctor.


What happens when taking birth control backwards on one of the weeks in between?

If your pills are all the same dose of hormones for each day, then nothing. If you have a type of pill where different weeks have different doses of hormones, then you will need to use another form of birth control (while continuing to take your birth control pills in the right order) for this month, as there is a chance that you may ovulate that month. You do not want to take your placebo pills (the pills you take for 1 week when you are supposed to have your period) during the middle of your birth control pill cycle, as those pills offer no birth control protection. If that was the case, then you may get a surprise period in the middle of your cycle, and you will need to use another form of birth control in order to prevent pregnancy.

Does keflex affect the birth control pill?

Hello, Keflex ( Cefalexin) will affect birth control as its a Antibiotic. Because of this you need to use a condom when you have intercourse for 2 weeks after you finish your course of pills.Antibiotics can diminish the effectiveness of birth control, another form of birth control should be used such as condoms.Case studies report that Keflex (an antimicrobial agent) can reduce the effectiveness of oral contraceptives. Please plan on utilizing another form of birth control, such as spermacide and/or a male condom, to stay protected while you take Keflex AND for at least seven days after you take your last Keflex pill. Breakthrough bleeding can occur while taking both of these medications together, as well as the higher possibility of unintended pregnancy. Again, use another method of birth control in addition to taking your regularly scheduled doses of Loestrin Fe while taking Keflex, and for at least one week after your last dose of Keflex.

What happens if you take the birth control pill 20 minutes late?
