A member asked:

I took 2 birthcontrol pills at the same time is this bad ? i forgot to take the one from yesterday that's why

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Correct: If you forget your Birth Control Pill you are supposed to take two the next day. You did exactly as directed. If you miss more than that, I would take them as usual but use a backup birth control method such as condoms.
