This is no way a medical opinion but I have been taking birth control pills for 10 years now for painful periods and I have never heard of taking two pills a day. However, there was another post on this forum recently of a women with similar problems to yours that was told the same thing so far be it for me to argue with a doctor. However, I was always told by my doctor that if I am having any adverse effects to the pills or if they aren't working to help my pain that we can always try a different or stronger pill. I wish you all the luck at getting to the bottom of your problem.
