I took my birth control pill 2 hours overdue!

is it still okay? :(

Answers:    They are most effective when taken at the same time every sunshine, but that doesn't mean that you aren't protected...usually a few hours difference is OK, but there are those freak events.

I'm thoroughly paranoid about these things, so if it was me, I would step ahead and use a condom for a week, just to be safe...but approaching I said, I'm very paranoid about getting pregnant. Of course...I've be using the pill for 6 years and no scares yet. :).
Yes, at hand is no huge problem taking the pill a few hours late if this is an uncommon event. Taking it irregularly with the sole purpose lowers the effectiveness. If this is a daily issue after you may get pregnant because the pill has to build up strength contained by the body, the more regular you are the better. You should always try to take it in the same hour everyday for full coverage, even then it is possible to draw from pregnant. FYI...You do know that you need to be on it a month before you enjoy sex for the full effectiveness. May you be blessed. As long as you're not on the mini-pill (progestin only) 2 hours isn't going to make a difference. If you read the info that comes near your pills, it generally doesn't tell you to to use support up unless you miss 2 pills in a row or 2 pills in a week. Look for the prescribing info for your pill to be secure. I set a reminder on my cell phone so I always take mine at like time..
your good !! don't worry around it , it doesnt have to be the excact same time everyday , if you miss a day , hold the pill right a way , if you miss two days then you hold to wait till next month , or start a contemporary pack , i think its both. But yeah your fine , I take mione when i wake up up and sometimes i wake up and 8:30 and sometimes i wake up at 11 It's fine! Don't freak out something like it. Doctors mainly tell you to nick it at the same time every day only so you don't forget. I've forgotten to take my pill for the day. I of late take it as soon as I remember and then thieve my next one on schedule. No biggie!.
Two hours won't form a difference. Hormone levels require about 24 hours to drop adequate to allow pregnancy. Yes, as long as you haven't missed a pill so far, it should pose no problem..
Fifty- Fifty. You might get lucky but its not normally right to enjoy them thatlate. x :0 take care yeah you will be fine, but don't construct a habit out of it, or it will lose it's effectiveness.
your fine as long as your not 12 hours deferred taking it...

dont worry : ).
Oh No! You have to stand on your director now after sex for the next week! yes. you're fine..
yes, but self ask a doctor to be sure. yes, but stay on track!.
yes, your fine
