Around the same time, it doesnt have to be the exact hour or minute. Like morning, afternoon, evening. I used to take mine at lunch time.

Yes you should, today's pill have a mim amount of hormone need so delays can upset the balance. Most likely it won't be a big deal if you an hour or two off but I differently wouldn't go with the within 24 hour thing others have told you.

Depends on the type of pill. Mini pills or progestin only pills need to be taken within an hour. Pills that contain estrogen are not so time sensitive.

the closer yo are the better. If you are off by 1 hr or less, you are ok. The longer time passes the less effective it is and you an get pregnant. If you take 1 in the am and the other in the pm, it won't protect you.

It doesn't have to be exact, but you want a steady stream of medication in your system, so take it at the same time of day (morning, afternoon, evening)

well not exact the hour, i haven't try that yet, but i study, so i know that you need to take the pill at the same date, but not necessarily the same same same hour...
i think i injection will be better, less trouble... don't you think so too?
or you are afraid of needles?

you should take it around the same time of day, like when you wake up or before you go to bed, but it really doesn't matter if it flucuates a couple (or even 3 or 4) hours day to day.

I sometimes wonder too. But I think as long as you take it around the same time (doesn't have to be exactly at that time every time) you'll be fine. Good luck!

Well you would like to make sure you take it around the same time everyday to make sure it stays effective..
