I posted a topic on the symptoms of PID before and said I felt scared because I had them, well it turns out I've got chlamydia and I have to take antibiotics but today I took one 7 hours late,does this mean it wont work now?

    According to www.nhsdirect.com if you miss one dose just wait and take the next one, don't take two together. If you think you've missed more than one dose or up to a days treatment, then its best to speak to your GP. Hope this helps
