birth control

Hi I never take my pills at the same time I never remember. One day I can take it at 5 ( regular time) next day at 8 and the next at 9. I'm not having sex right now. Am I still at risk tho? Or am I OK since I'm not missing the pill just not taking it at the same time.

If you're taking birth control pills, and just for general health, you might consider periodic visits to a gynecologist.  Primary care docs are pretty clueless, especially about medications.

I don't have a gyno. I'll just ask my doctor when I go back.

This is a question for your gynecologist, not us amateurs.
