Yes, same what Amanda said. If you don't want to take it in the morning and you already started, take it like 30 min after the time, each time every day, until you get to the time you want to take it. So say you took it at 9 AM, tomorrow take it at 9:30, then the next day at 10, and so forth. It would definitely be safer to take it in increments of 15 min, but if you really don't want to take it in the morning, then 30 min might be ok.

Yes, you must take it within the same 20 to 30 min. timeframe in order for it to work effectively. But you should also use condoms as well. Trust me I am 19 and I have 2 kids. I was taking birth control when I got pregnant both times. The first child I was on the pill, the second I was on the shot. So always use a back up method.

My doctor recommend for me take a birth control in the morning before I goes to the work. As exact time when I take the medicine.

Yes. For the pill to work properly you must take it at the same time every day. After starting on the pill, it takes a month to become effective. If you miss or take the pill at the wrong time, you have to wait another month for it to become effective again. Your doctor should explain and there will be instructions on the packaging.

You should take your birth control pil at about the same time every day to keep a consistant level of the hormones in your body. This is how they work best.

I take my pill before I go to bed each night. It's easier for me to remember. My bedtime doesn't vary too much, but I always take it withinin a 4 hour window. I've been on the pill for about 7 years now and I've never had a problem. *knock on wood*

You should most definitely take it at the same time of day. I got pregnant because I didn't do this.

Of course!
It doesn't matter what time of the day you take it, as long as you take it at the SAME TIME EACH DAY, like it says in the pamphlet and on your prescription.
