What happens if you take two birth control pills in one day?

Taking two birth control pills in one day is usually not harmful, but it might cause mild side effects such as nausea or spotting. This can happen if you miss a pill and then take it along with your regular dose.

What to Do:

1. Continue as Usual: After taking two pills, continue taking the rest of your pills as scheduled.
2. Watch for Side Effects: You might feel a bit nauseous or notice some spotting, but these effects are generally temporary.

Why It Happens:

• Sometimes, people accidentally take two pills or take an extra one if they missed a previous dose. This is a common occurrence and usually not a cause for concern.

Important Note:

• If you find yourself missing pills often, it may be helpful to set a reminder or use a pill organizer to keep track.

Always remember to read the instructions that come with your birth control and consult with a healthcare provider if you have specific concerns.
