Q: Is This An Ok Time During the Day to Take Bc?

I am about to start taking bc pills for the first time and I keep reading that taking them the same time everyday is the best. So I decided when I start taking them in a week I think im going to take them every night before I go to bed is that a good idea because I really dont go to bed the same time everynight so what do you guys think??

Thats what I do, but since I usually dont go to bed at the same time, i've started setting my cell phone alarm. It helps a lot! Good luck

I take them before bed too. I tried taking them in the morning once, but got all screwed up because I sleep a lot later on weekends than on weekdays. I try to take them as close to the same time everyday, but sometimes it's a couple hours later than other days. Just don't forget all together and you'll be ok.
