Ortho Try Lo
Posted: 05-08-06 16:53pm

Im on ortho lo, and i'm just wondering how high the dosage is.
And how important it is to be precise with time.
I usually take my pill at 5pm, but sometimes I slip and take it at
say like 5:15, or 5:30. Is this a big deal?
I'm just a little concerned because my boyfriend and I do
have unprotected sex, and he does finish inside of me.
Am I okay?

Hi , with combination pills, which is what you are on, you have a 12hr window in whihc to take them late..After 12 hours it is like taking a late pill, and your pill booklet has info on what to do.

So ortho lo has 25mcg of estrogen in it.
