NO: As long as you take it daily but it is better after a heavy meal to avoid stomach irritation and not after breakfast , the bcp might make you fat.

I started my combination birth control pill pack late and had to take two pills in one day to make up for it, one when I remembered and one at the scheduled time. Am I still protected from pregnancy?
If you have taken your combination birth control pills almost perfectly but start a new pack 15-17 hours later than your scheduled time (take two pills in one day), are you still protected from pregnancy?
If I take birth control pill every day but the time I take it varies (one time it was within 10hrs ), is that still perfect use? Chance of pregnancy?
