Hi everyone, I recently started taking birth control and I have a few questions. 1) I usually take my pill between 7-7:30 but sometimes if I have work and I forget I take it at 11:30-2 is this bad!? I'm trying harder now to take it at 7 2) what's up with the sugar pills and your period?

Hi lmnop,

The idea of taking the pill at the same time is so that the hormone levels in your body remain fairly constant.  Try to find a better time to take your pill.  A couple of hours wouldn't be a real concern but you're getting past that.

The sugar pills are NOTHING more than a reminder for you to take your pill.  Your period is triggered by the ABSENCE of the hormones from the pill. While on your period your fertility is very low so it is unlikely you'd conceive.

Hope it helps.
