A member asked:
My birth control says it expires in july. will it expire in the beginning of july or at the end? is it still safe to use for that month?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ok to use: Pills are dry, compressed powders, and do not deteriorate in the time of merely a month or two. That means the pills are fine to use for that entire month.
