My friend just called me freakin out ... I tried callin my gyno but they are out to lunch so I figured I could get on here and ask. Anyway, ummm she said that she took like 4 pills ... I guess because all the hormones in the bc ... So that she wouldnt have her period for my party tonight so she could mess around with her bf. I was like whatever ... But she called me after she took the pills and was like can u overdose on bc and since ive never tried ... Can u?

Ummm if u could let me kno id appreciate it cuz shes just called me again and shes like seriously freakin out.

Thanks

Yeah, you can overdose on the pill, it is just like any other prescription drug (or over the counter) and it would probably be in your (her) best interest to call your local emergency room. Today is saturday, you mean you have a gyno who is actually in on the weekend? Your post says today's date anyway.

Just for eveyones knowledge ... I finally got dee to answer her cell and she said that the most it will do its she wont have protection until she starts her new set of pills but that everything should be ok ... But it wasnt the best idea to take 4 ... But toshas not gonna die or anything so its all good I still have a best friend. :d

ok, I was just curious, because I think that would be neat if a gyno was in at the office on a weekend! There was no need to post with attitude! I am glad to hear your friend is going to be just fine!
