Loestrin 24

So i'm taking these because It's suppose to make my period last only a few days, but my problem is I've been falling asleep early and I usually take the pill at 8pm. I'm pretty good at taking it at the same time but like I've said, I've been falling asleep early some days and end up taking it late.. (First time was 2 hours late..Tonight I was 6 hours late) Is this going to effect it?

Re: Loestrin 24

Maybe you should think about changing the time that you take it, like around lunchtime, or when you get up. I dont think being a couple of hours late is going to make that large of a difference, but you might start forgetting if you're falling asleep early.

Or, maybe set an alarm for when you have to take it. I have a couple of friends who use that method. they always keep their pills in their purse, and whenever their phone alarm goes off, they take it.

Re: Loestrin 24

A few hours difference won't affect BCP's that have estrogen and progestin (like Loestrin 24). If you take a progestin only pill (a.k.a. "mini pill") it is critical that they be taken at the same time every day.
