Changing time of day I take Cerelle mini-pill

I am on cerelle which has to be taken at the same time each day or at most within 3 hours, I have always taken it at about 9pm when I get home from work but I am changing jobs and it would be easier to take it when I get up.

If I was to take it tonight at 9pm as usual and then take it at 7am tomorrow morning and then carry on taking it at 7 from them onwards would I be covered?

Hey there,

You would *probably* be fine, but it's impossible to know for sure - so you need to ask your doctor and make sure you use a condom until you get proper medical advice. :smile:
