A member asked:

Recently every time i get my period i take contraceptive pills to stop them. i sometimes take a whole month worth in one day. am i harming my ovaries?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sounds like bad idea: Taking a whole month's supply of pills in just one day sounds like a bad idea (I'm sure you'll not find anyone to disagree). The ovaries react to changes in hormone levels, so hitting them with a whopping dose at one time sounds like a damaging proposition. The doctor can help... meaning it's time to make a follow-up appointment.
