What happens if you take the birth control pill 20 minutes late?

Although regularity is recommended and worth aiming for there's no need to go overboard. 20 minutes won't have any effect at all. It'll add about 2% of time between doses, and that's way too little to affect the hormone levels in your body.

Does it matter if you are off by ten minutes on your birth control?
I am on the desogen birth control pill, and the instructions say to take it "around the same time" every day. That means you can be 10-15 minutes late taking the pill with no side effects. After taking it more than 45 minutes late though, you start to run into dangerous territory. I don't reccomend ever being more than 15 to 20 minutes late taking it, EVER. I have been on the pill for one year now.
