What to Do If You Take Your Birth Control Pill a Day Early - Ortho Tri-Cyclen


Question
I am on Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo.  What would happen or what should I do if I take Thursday's pill on Wednesday, I just noticed it today on my dial pak.  I have been taking Ortho since November of '08 and this is the first time thst I'm taking thursday's pill on wednesday.

Answer
Hi Natalie,

So are you saying that you are a day ahead on taking the pill-like you took an extra one? I would advise you to ask your doctor or pill provider. But in my opinion, I would say that you would just keep taking one a day and you would be finished one day sooner than normal.
But that's just my opinion.

I don't advise taking the birth control pill in general or any kind of hormonal birth control methods. I feel that the "natural" way is best, not a lot of hormones. Anyway, if you want to talk more about this or tell me what happened, please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
