A member asked:
Started nordette (ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel) 21 and had taken it as an ecp on the 6th day, and continued on taking it individually on the next 4 days. am i overdosed?

No: You should be fine. When birth control pills first came out they were doses 3 times or more the dose then we use today. So, while the day you doubled up you may have had nausea or headache, the hormone levels drop within 24 hours, That's why its ok to resume the regular dose the next day.
