Is it bad if i don't take my birth control every day at the same time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If you are irregular in taking bcp you run the risk of irregular bleeding and even pregnancy. Bcp should be taken within 1 hour of the same time each day. You may change the time at the beginning of a new pack.
