  • Casual use of the contraceptive pill is fine if you wouldn't mind going through all the hassles and discomforts pregnancy and birth, if you like the idea of your life being turned upside down by the arrival of a child, if you'd have no financial problems providing a good life for a child, if you like the idea of being responsible for the care of another human being for at least the next eighteen years and you get a kick out of the idea that your heart will be held hostage by a person who will almost certainly turn into an asshole about thirteen years down the line and may turn out to be a total asshole forever.

    Since it seems that you're not actually that stupid, then you need to set up a system that ensures you take your pill at the same time every day. Unless you have the memory of the proverbial goldfish, it's not that difficult. Make it a habit to take it before or after something you do every morning or evening without fail. Brushing your teeth for example, or putting on your underwear, or whatever.

    As for what you should do if you miss a pill, advice about this should be on the information leaflet that's included with all medication.

    • Thanks for your answer btw. So do you have the normal pill each day when you brush your teeth or do you just remember. I can never remember.

    • But like I can skip taking the pill every day and just rely on the next day pill which you only take when you need too and basically it guarantees you wont be pregnant. It seems better than relying on memory every day. Like sometimes I forget and then I will worry.

      • The eveyother day pill is not that effective. I've heard it stops 5/6 of would be pregnancies.

      • That isn't made for extended use. Just set an alarm, it's not complicated.

        Also, stop lying to your husband and claiming everyone is saying you're a bad person for not wanting kids when they're saying it because you made a major lie.

          • The morning after pill, or what you're calling "the next day pill". Good lord, why can't you follow basic threads in any post? We've all given you the consideration of translating your gibberish, the least you can do is have some basic memory and comprehension.

            • I have taken it quite a few times. I don't take it all the time.

              I am trying my best to follow everyone. Sorry a lot of people answered and I am doing my best.
