Can I become pregnant if miss my pill by two hours?
The likelihood of getting pregnant if you miss your birth control pill by two hours is very low, but not impossible.
Oral contraceptive pills are designed to be taken at the same time each day, and delaying your dose can reduce its effectiveness. If you miss your pill by two hours, you should take it as soon as possible. If more than 12 hours have passed since your missed dose, you should use backup contraception like a condom or spermicide for the next seven days.
It is important to take your birth control pill on time each day to ensure its full effectiveness in preventing pregnancy. If you frequently find it difficult to remember to take your pill on time, you should consider setting an alarm or talking to your doctor about alternative birth control methods that might work better for your lifestyle.
