I missed one birth control pill?

Question

I was wondering if I did everything right? I took it as soon as I remembered it (9 hours later) and then I took my regular one at the normal time I usually do. Did I do everything right???

Answer 1

YES U DID... JUST BE CAREFUL IF UR ACTIVE.. BUT YEAH UR SUPPOSE TO DO THAT =] CUZ IF ITS LATER U CAN TAKE 2 THE NEXT DAY

Answer 2

Yep ^__^.

Answer 3

Not really. There's a reason you have to take the pill at the same time every day, so once you skip you have to avoid sexual contact for at LEAST 24 hours (and lord I hope you did). It's good that you took it once you remembered, but remember that even when you take it late it isn't worth much.

To remember my pill, I have an alarm set on my phone for the same time every day to remind me. Maybe it could work for you.

Answer 4

you should take 2 at the time you normally take it, but you still took it so it should be fine

Answer 5

Yes you did. If I miss a pill I will try to use a condom for the next couple of days until I know I am back on track.

Good Luck
