Birth control

I used to take the BC pill @7:40 in the morning but I know this that I makes me drowsy and sleepy at work

I wanted to know if I could change the time for 8 o'clock at night

Find low drug prices at local & online pharmacies

The answer is yes, because the pills contain both oestrogens and progesterone.

Yes ;) and birth control shouldn't make you that drowsy that you are sleepy at work. I recommend you get your doctor to check your thyroid and also make sure you are getting at least 8 hours of sound asleep at night.

BIrth control decreases your B6 vitamin and perhaps that is making you drowsy. I NEVER recommend oral birth control due to risk of increase in certain cancers, obesity, dry skin and hair, and depression. Until you get off this and switch to condoms or the copper IUD (which is safer because it doesn't have hormones) I would recommend taking a B complex. It may help you regain the vitamins that the pill depletes, which may help with your energy.
