Started orsythia pill pack 2-3 hours late. am i still protected? been taking the pill packs at the same time everyday for 2 and a half years.

Still protected!: Taking your pill 2-3 hours late will not put you at risk for pregnancy. You are still protected! Its best to take your pills around the same time every day but a few hours either way won't change the effectiveness. Best wishes!
