Make a habit of : Associating something with taking your pill. Most women take it right before bed, some upon awakening, some before brushing their teeth, etc. Pick your best routine.

Minipills: Timing/ consistency is important when taking a progestin only (minipill). However, with other oral contraceptives, you are more likely to remember if taking the medication is part of a consistent routine.
