A member asked:
I take my bc lutera at 10:00 am i overslept a little it's 11:00 am and i took one is this too much of a time gap for it too be effective ?

No: a one hour gap should not cause any problems with your BCP's effectiveness. Continue taking it as directed and if you miss or delay any more doses and want to avoid pregnancy, use a back-up method of prevention (e.g., condoms) until you get your next period.
