It shouldn't affect anything just by being off an hour. Its more important that it's around the same time of day, but I took it for years and never took it at the same time. I would take it just before I went to bed (which can sometimes vary). I think you should be ok. And even if you were up to 12 hours off, as long as it was taken every day there should be nothing to worry about.

It is very important to take the pill at the same time every day. Also, you should not have sex more than twelve hours after you took the pill as it is not very affective anymore.
Since it was only an hour and it was the same hour for those eight days, I would not worry too much. Just use condoms for two weeks until her system is back to normal. But, if you do not want babies yet, you should always use condoms anyway!

I'm not sure what pill you take hotasfrick, but most pills are effective 24 hours a day for as long as you take the pill regularly. Otherwise, what good would they do?

They are effective always, but not "as effective" all b/c pills are like that. That is one of the main reasons why it is so important to pick a time to take it that is good for you. It is the same as any other med. I mean, if you take cold medicine that last for four hours, the last hour it is wearing off and is not as effective anymore at relieving symptoms. B/c is the same way.
I am not saying that it doesn't work at all anymore, because I am not sure if they have proved that or not, but it is less effective. At least that is what my doctor always tells me. Who knows.

Well, I started thinking about the whole "twelve hour" thing, and I honestly cannot remember who told me that. I could have sworn it was the nurse practioner at family planning, but I am just not sure. It could just be one of those things that I heard in passing and it stuck with me. A lot of people have told me that, but it may just be an old wives tale. Dunno.
I just still live by that rule to be safe!!! But, I could be totally wrong!So sorry, don't pay attention to me!
