I know that this board considers taking a combination pill within 2 hours of "pill-time" as "on time" - does this mean that if I took my pill an hour late (which I did tonight), that I won't lose any protection? Or am I a little bit more at risk? I know I'm being paranoid, I'm just wondering if, with a very low-dose pill (yaz), if perhaps I'm less protected than with a higher dose pill... because for POPs, the window is just 30 minutes... so is yaz closer to a POP, or am I okay?

When I took the pill, I usually missed my target time from 1/2 hour to 1 1/2 hours, it was pretty hard to take it at the same time every single day!
