A member asked:
If i take my birth control usually at 7 am and then i sleep in and take it at 9:03 am is it still effective? the week previous i had done this as well. i took it at 9:44, but the next few days after i took it early. should i be worried?

Taking the pill a few hours early or late occasionally does not alter their effectiveness. Skipping a day or two would.
