Order of birth control pills important?

[HackNSlash]

My gf is using Alesse, and she needs to go home for about a week while 'stealthily' taking her pills. Our best idea right now is taking a bunch out of the package and putting them in an aspiring bottle or something (yeah I know they don't look like aspirin but we're still hammering the details out). Does the order in which each pill is taken matter? Or are they all the same dose?

im not sure about that brand but yeah usually the order does matter.
mine are color coded. first week white, then light blue, then dark blue.
if hers are all the same color i would imagine they are the same dose.
i can't see how hard it would be to hide a pack of BC... won't her mom wonder why she's taking an aspirin at the same time everyday.
or what if her mom says hey do you have any aspirin i have a headache? lol whoops
i found it online and from what i could see in the picture the 21 pills are all the same color, and the week for your period is a different color?
so im assuming they are all the same mg strength so order wouldn't matter.
like i said if they are different colors that usually means different strengths.
if they are different colors then she can just remember which ones to take when.

Alesse
Take 5 pink pills within 120 hours after unprotected sex and 5 more pink pills 12 hours later. Each dose contains 0.5 mg of levonorgestrel and 100 µg of ethinyl estradiol.

theres an odd fact i found out about those pills. weird! if you are on the pill then why would it be unprotected sex? unless you just keep a pack around just in case i dunno?
well according to that fact they are all the same dose so your g/f can go along w/ her plan... man i rambled alot lol sorry .

Alesse is one of those brands that is also approved as a "morning after" pill. Those are the instructions you read, demon.

When taken as normal birth control, they are all the same strength, so order does not matter.

Now, the more serious problem. If she is concerned about someone rooting through her purse or make-up kit or suitcase, there is a problem in the family. There is no better explanation than she was having menstrual difficulty and the doctor put her on the pill to regulate it. Might not be believed but that is the preferred treatment for much dysmennorhea. She could also tell her mother that it is none of her business. Might get the air cleared quickly because if she is old enough to live away from home, her medical treatments are her own and no one else's business.

You do not mention age. Half of all women become sexually active between their 18th and 20th birthdays. By that age, parents should not be checking their daughter's luggage.
