Pill time important: It is important to take the pill at the same time every day. You can have irregular bleeding after missing these doses. You can also have contraceptive failure and end up pregnant. Continue with the current pack as is and speak with your doctor. Do not switch around your pills now because you will create more problems and bleeding. If taking a pill every doesn't work find another method.
