Took Pill 1 1/2 hours late?
| Thu, 09-23-2004 - 10:33am |
I was helping a friend with her homework last night, and I forgot to take my Pill at the right time. I took it 1 1/2 hours late, but my bf is coming into town this weekend. Do we need to use protection or not? My Pill pack says it's ok to have sex if you are late taking 1 pill (and on here, "on time" is 2 hrs +/-, right?), but not more than the 1. Is that right?

Within the window of 4 hours (+/-2 hrs of your regular time) you should be fine. It's a really good idea to be as consistent taking your pills as possible. Being off (+/-2 hrs.) occasionally shouldn't hurt. Thanks for posting,
Take care,
