Exactness not needed: She who is properly taking birth control pills, and is beyond her first pack of pills, has contraceptive protection all the time, regardless of where she is in her pill pack. With mini-pills (1-ingredient), she should take 1 daily in the same 3-hour period. With combination pills, she should take 1 daily but it likely does NOT decrease her protection if she takes it a half day later than usual.
