What if I dont take the pill same time everyday!!

I have a bad problem of not taking the pill at the exact time everyday. I am always within 1-2 hours, never really off. I have always taken the pill before I go to school now that i am out, i range. But I have never waited over 2 hours to take it. Can I get Pregnant by not taking the pill the exact time everyday. I aslo use ortho tri.

It's highly unlikely that you would get pregnant missing it by a couple of hours.  If you skipped it for several days, the chance would go up.  You've been on it long enough that you are protected.

If you are overly concerned about becoming pregnant, you could always add a spermacide.  I've used a product called contraceptol.  It's a gel and not horribly disgusting like some of the products out there.  As a matter of fact, it was the only form of bc I was using and never got pregnant.  Pregnant now but that was by choice.  

Good luck.
