A few hours in either direction will not make a significant difference if you're using the combination Birth Control pill. If you're using the progestin only pill (or minipill), you should take it within three hours of the same time each day.

You lost an active pill down the drain Do you just take the next days pill?

Replace the missing pill with the last active pill in your pack. Take the other pills in the pack as scheduled. You'll finish the active pills a day earlier than originally expected. You should also start the next pack a day earlier than expected so that the pill-free break is no longer than seven days.


What should you do if you took your birth control pill but threw up 10 minutes later?

Resume taking your next scheduled pill on time. If you just started on the pill take it after eating as some women have nausea and vomiting as a side effect.


If you take a pill 6 hours early by mistake is it okay to take the next pill at your regularly scheduled time the next day or will doing so have the same effect as missing a pill?

This is fine. It wont have the effect of missing the pill because you didnt miss a pill, you just took one pill 6 hours earlier than usual for you. Try to stay nearer the time for your medication but you are protected still against pregnancy.


What to do if you took your pill earlier than usual?
