  Uh oh. And no, since it's hormonal -- basically like taking a mega-dose of BCPs. So I guess you *could* take it, but it'd probably cause your supply to tank at least temporarily. But then again, so would getting KU.

  This.

  Since you already took it, I'd call just to make sure, and probably pump and dump.
