Question: i am four hours late on taking my pill what should i do ?do i just take one and start asusuall tommorrow ?


Answer: It depends on the type of pill you take as some have a very strict dosaging regime in order to provide full protection against unwanted pregnancy. Please consult the patient leaflet for further information about what to do if you forgot to take your pill. In case of doubt, it is advisable to use an additional form of contraception, i.e. a barrier method (condom) until you have consulted your gynecologist.
