A member asked:
Does it really matter what time i take my birth control as long as i take it everyday?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: As long as you take your pill at about the same time every day--you will be fine. We try to get women to take it at a time they are doing another well-established habit--like brushing teeth before bedtime. It can be hard to remember to take a pill every day.
