Daylight savings time change and taking birth control pill Posted: 11-06-07 15:53pm
Just a quickie on the pill I've been taking my
BCP (birth control pills) at 7:30 each
night...now the time change has me all
confused. Should I continue taking them
at 7:30 (which would really be 8:30
without the change) ...or start taking
them at 6:30 (which would be 7:30 without
the change)....is this going to increase
my chances of being pregnant at all if the
time isn't right? Thanks guys...any
answers would be mucho appreciated!

You should never go more than 24 hours
between pills, so taking it earlier would
be better... so 6:30 should be your new
time. Increasing to 8:30 probably
wouldn't increase your risk of pregnancy
by much, but if you don't have any
problems taking it at 6:30 than I'd say
that would be your best bet.

Shouldn't matter just take it at the time
that is best for you to remember.
