A member asked:
Can you forget to take your birth control pill on time at 10am one day and take your birth control pill 7 hours later in the same day and still be protected ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely yes: there is about a thirty hour effect from each pill. They work best when overlaying the pill coverage from one to another.
