Q: Yaz Birth Control And Effectiveness

I've been on Yaz for over a year now and have found it very compatible with me. The only question I have is towards its effectiveness. Doctors tell you to take it at the same time every day, but does it matter if it varies by, say, two or three hours? I take it right when I wake up but sometimes the time varies on when I have to wake up for school. This only became a problem this school year because some days I go in for class at 11, and some days I go in at 8. When I start my next month of pills should I switch to taking it at night (I generally go to bed at the same time) or does it truly matter? I really do depend on it to be as effective as possible because my boyfriend and I do not use condoms, although he does withdraw every time. Thank you!

Two or three hours is fine. If you want to take it at night because it will be more consistent then go ahead.
