Would I be okay if I take my birth control pills 2 hours after I’m supposed to? I take the combined pill. Brand: Sprintec

yes that is okay to do!

@greenwitch does it lower my protection?

you have a 24 hour window to take your pill until considered missed. you’re fine.

@MakAttack445 nope! Like said above for the combination pill you have a 24 hour window so 2 hours will not lower protection

A 24 hour window means you can take the pill anytime within 24 hours. So as long as you take one pill a day you’re fine.

so it would be okay to take 12 hours late? i was throwing up all night. i usually take it at 11 pm but i was sick and didnt take it until 2 am which i later threw up. idk where to get my pill from since i dont have an extra pack. should i just completely miss yesterdays and take todays? @Kitarah

@UmpaLumpa2 I told you that you had a 24 hour window. 12 hours late is only half of that so that’s fine.

okay thank you but i also asked about where to get it from? should i open next months package? or should i totally mess up my schedule and go on my break week a day early? @Yi_eune

It’s entirely up to you @umpalumpa2 Going on break week a day early makes no difference you won’t “mess up your schedule” you’ll just end your break week a day earlier that’s all.
