Missed Pill Dose? Risks & What to Do


Question
Hi I have a question. Lately I've been forgetting to take my pills on time. Normally I would take them at 10PM but for about the past week, by the time I remember to take them, its 3 AM. I've been taking them around 3AM. Is this ok? I've been on the pill for about 4 months. Thanks.

Answer
You increase your risk of pregnancy by not taking it exactly as it's prescribed.  figure out a time that you can remember and take at that time every day.  It can be 10 PM or 3 AM.  No one knows what the risk increases to - not until you get pregnant.
