Is Pregnancy Possible While On Birth Control Pills?
I m on Mononessa, and it s for regulating my PCOS and also for birth control. I usually take my pill at 12:30 AM. I know it s a weird time but i m always up at that time. Today I accidentally took it three hours late, at 3:25 AM. Will it affect me tremendously and should I be careful when it comes to sex? Should I wait a week before I know that i m fully protected again or can i continue as normal?

Hi,
No there is no need to break your routine. If you miss day or two than it may create some issue other 2 to 3 hours is not too much of concern.
One thing you can change is the time of having medicine, it is better to have it during night because this time there are less chances of missing the dosage.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
