Questionhi
I started my new pack on Monday, and usually take a pill before I go to bed. but I was really tired on thursday night and forgot. I remembered the next day, but when I took it it will have been about 19 hours later than when I should have done. I took fridays pill at the normal time.
However I havnt been using additional contraception, because I read in one booklet I would still be protected since I only missed one. However starting to worry now, since I keep reading different things. Since it is saturday, wont be able to get any advice until monday, wondered if you could help at all? getting really worried :( Im on microgynon 30.
Thanks, Aimee
AnswerHi Aimee,
If I were you, why not use the back up birth control as well, just to be hopefully "safe". However, you probably know that no method of birth control is 100% safe for preventing pregnancy. The only method of complete safety from pregnancy is of course, abstinence. Let me know if you want to talk more by emailing me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com
