Brief Answer:
Quite OK. Nothing to worry much.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,

Thanks for writing to us. I understand your concern.

If you had taken birth control pill regularly WITHOUT missing single one in the last month, then 1 hr late for taking pill just for one day in this month is NOT a big deal and you have nothing to worry about pregnancy risk.

You will be completely SAFE and involve in unprotected sex fearlessly. You don't need any kind of back up method as extra protection from this month. You will get more than 99.5% protection against unwanted pregnancy.

Hope, I have answered your query. Wish your good health and take care. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

For future query, you can directly approach me through
