Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Though problems can occur with these drugs if used for long time, but taking Ovral for this little time i.e. 10 or 20 days is of no concern. People do use it for many many months safely.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mahboob Ur Rahman
