In general, take the pill at the same time each day (when you wake up, when you go to bed, when you brush your teeth, etc.). No, you won't ruin your regimen if you take your pill at 7:15 instead of 7:00; however, setting an alarm is a good way to make sure you're taking your pill on time. Taking the pill a few hours late (because you are sleep late, or forget) may not make a difference in some pills, but could leave you unprotected, depending on the type of pill you take and which week of your cycle you are in.
If you're taking progestin-only pills it is crucial that you take the pill at the same time every day. Taking it three hours later than usual may make it ineffective and you will need to use a back up method for at least 48 hours.
thanks
