Birth Control Pill - Is This Consider Late?
Posted: 03-29-07 20:04pm

Hi,
I just started taking the pill. I scheduled myself to take it every day at 8pm. But sometimes i take it 8:30, so 30 minutes late. Is this considered late?

IF so, what should i do?

Please help.

I was always told you have an hours on way or the other meaning you could take it between 7 and 9 and be fine.

Yep, that's exactly right. Many pills re considered "late" after 6 hours.
