A member asked:

Missed dose of progesterone (pill) can i take my next dose this morning and again tonight?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: It is critical that a Progesterone only pill be taken at the same time each day. A back-up form of contraception should be used or you should abstain from intercourse for at least 2 days if the pill is taken > 3 hours late or missed on any given day. You should resume taking your pill as soon as possible.
