Can you kill yourself by overdosing on the contraceptive pill?

Question

Taking three months+ worth of pills in an actual suicide attempt, could you actually die or does it really do nothing because it's just hormones?

Answer 1

I would guess you;d create a great imbalance in your system.

Hmm not sure, maybe death can happen?

Answer 2

No. Hormones have no ability to damage you body the way , say, sedatives can.  Actually, bc pills can be used to do an early abortion.... That's rather the way Plan B works.

Answer 3

You will make yourself really sick and vomit and you might put your kidneys or liver in danger, but I'm not sure if it would be fatal.

Call a suicide hotline if you are thinking of killing yourself.

Answer 4

You will not die.

And good ladies like you must not report to hospital either with an overdose of these.

Answer 5

I don't think it would do much other than maybe cause a headache and water retention, and irregular peroids for a while.

It may not be good for the liver, one of the reasons why it is a prescription drug is that the doctor is suppose to check the liver (yearly?) (I think they manually feel over the abdomnal area) to see if the liver is enlarged.

Tufts of easily broken blood vessels can sometimes form in the liver with OC drugs.
