i usually take my pill around 12pm (lunch time) but today i forgot and remembered to take it at like 8pm, will it be safe to take my next 1 at the normal time tomorrow?
and btw im not sexually active at this moment so theres no risk of me getting pregnant cuz of the delay im just wondering if its safe?

If you are on the combined pill then you can take it up to 12 hours late without having to count it as a missed pill and take extra precautions. Just take your next one at your normal time tomorrow. I found that if I take the pill that late two days in a row, I get spotting, so make sure you take your next one at 12 to avoid that.
You're fine.
I've been on the pill for 10 years, and often forgotten to take it until 10pm. I normally take it at noon too.

It's not a problem missing your regular time. However when missing a day, you need to double up the next day & it shouldn't happen on a regular basis.
