Hello. Sunday night, I took my birth
control pill around 11:30pm, then I
believe I had a bout of food poisoning
because I got very ill and I threw up,
probably around 3:00am. Does this mean
that I missed my pill and I should have
taken one afterwards? I took my monday
night pill at 11:30pm as per my routine.
I just finished the first week in my pack.
Thanks in advance for the input.

Hmmm.. They say that if you throw up
after a certain amount of time after
taking the pill you're ok, but i'm not
sure how long that is. You should call
your doc.

You usually digest it within the first
hour or two.. So I think you will be ok..
Since you took your pill regurly the next
day even if you didn't absorb all the
hormones you will still be protected.
