is the birth control pill still effective if u take them at different times I been taking them but…

Did your doctor not go over this? Or pharmacist? I believe you have to take them at the same time.

not really he didn't go over it @halsey11

They won't be as effective. Your supposed to take them the same time everyday for them to fully work.

oh okay thanks@t623

Set an alarm on your phone so you don't forget. That's what I have to do.

okay thanks alot@t623

So they need to be taken around the same time. There's usually a 4 hour window that you can take it in and it won't make a difference. Like I usually took mine at 8pm. I could take it anywhere from 6pm-10pm and still be okay. But I tried to always take it at 8 pm to make sure it was the most effective.

okay thanks this my first time ever on BC @christimary0

If you forget a pill, you want to take it as soon as you remember. And then take another one at your normal time. So you end up taking 2 that day. So if I went to bed and forgot my pill at 8pm and I remembered at 9 the next morning, I'd take a pill at 9am and then my normal time at 8pm and I'm back on schedule. That's how my pills worked. There should also be a paper attached to the pack that answers all of these questions. Mine usually came with one.

okay thanks alot @christimary0
