What Are The Repercussions Of Taking Birth Control Pills In The Wrong Order?
Question: Hi.. i have been taking birth control pills(21 pills) from february 2016.. in 11 months i have take the pills regularly without missing except for 2,3 days where i took the pills half an hour late.. today also i took the pill 45 mins late.. is it fine.. am i safe?
Brief Answer:
YOU ARE SAFE AND PROTECTED.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
thanks for the query to HCM,
There is no problem at all and you are safe if you have taken the pill not more than 6 hours late from your scheduled time. So 45 min would not cause any contraceptive lapse and you are still protected.
