HI! I missed my birth control pills for two days and then I took three at once on day 3. SInce then I have been feeling really moody and light headed and my mom says my breast look larger..... Could any of these symptoms be related to the three birth control pills I took at once? Thanks.

Hi,
Thank you for the query on HCM platform.
I understand your query.
Yes, your symptoms are due to triple dose of contraceptives.at a time.
Actually oral contraceptives are 100 % effective , when taken strictly according to instruction ( daily at a fixed time every day ) In case you forget a pill, take it as soon as you remember it followed by regular dose at scheduled time. If you skip 2-3 pills at a stretch, stop taking pills.. let withdrawal bleeding occur & start with a fresh pack of pills from 5th day of the bleeding.
Thanks.
