Taking the Pill Incorectly. Posted: 12-06-05 21:52pm
I've been on the pill for about 5 years
now, for my periods and to clean up my
skin. The name of it is dianette.
I've never ever bothered to take it
properly at the same time everyday. I've
been really bad with that, and remembering
when I stopped taking it, and when I
should start taking it again.
Will that affect how well it works now
that I am considering using it as birth
control as well. How long should I be
taking it at a regular time before it
works as birth control?
Oh and while i'm here, should I be taking
the pill in the same hour? Half hour? Or
minute of everyday?
Also, I have a really odd sleeping
pattern, will this affect it at all?
