Then after those to days of lunch pills start taking them at supper. If you can wait til you get our next period that is the best time to switch pill times because the last few pills are just blanks anyway. they give out those to help you stay in the habit of taking a pill every day and to help you keep up with when to start taking them again. So you could wait until you've had your period and then when you take the first pill take it at supper time. Keep using condoms just in case and you probably wont have anything to worry about. Condoms are 98% effective against pregnancy when used properly.
Keep in mind i'm not a medical professional though. The best thing to do is call a nurse at your ob/gyn and ask them about switching times. you most likely wont even have to go to see them. a phone call will probably do it. [ imalice's advice column | Ask imalice A Question ]
