For as long as you want.

There is no time limit, and no medical reason to "take a break."

You can take birth control pills as long as you want to avoid pregnancy. There is no time limit, no medical need to "take a break," and no effect on future fertility. However, sexually transmissible infections can affect future fertility, so it's important to use condoms to lower the risk of getting an infection.

No.

I will have to disagree with what the person said above.

A female can be on Birth control form when she is a young adolescent to when she if a full grown woman.It can have its negatives.

Being on birth control for years can lead to infertility. This case can be rare (depends on type of birth control) but it is possible and it does happen. In most cases it is just harder to get pregnant if you ever plan to get off birth control and get pregnant.

You can be on the pill for as long or as little as you want. Its best to discuss this with your doctor though.

Yes. If it wasn't, your doctor would stop writing the prescription. It just reduces the lining of your uterus, which is not harmful. There have been inconclusive studies that suggest the pill increases the risk for heart attacks and strokes, but it hasn't been proven yet.

For as long as you want to take it but its always best to discuss this with your doctor beforehand.

There really isn't a "too long." The pill works by basically fooling your body into thinking it's pregnant so you don't ovulate. It won't make you sterile. There is a slightly higher rate of blood clots for women over the age of 35, but that can mostly be alleviated by not smoking and keeping yourself in good health. If you have any specific concerns, you should direct them to the Doctor Who has been prescribing your birth control.

At least a month, it takes a month for the pill to start working. After the month is up you need to continue taking the pill EVERDAY if you miss a day skip intercourse for that day.

Birth control is meant to prevent pregnancy. If you want to get pregnant, stop taking birth control. When you stop, you can try to conceive immediately. There is no medical need to wait.

While on Birth control do you take the white pills while you have your period?

Yes, you should always continue to take your birth control unless your physician tells you to stop. Stopping your birth control and having unprotected sex will make you become pregnant. If you are experiencing any bleeding before the expected date or time of your period, you are most likely experiencing spotting or breakthrough bleeding. This is bleeding that is not considered a period, it is however a side effect from birth control that can last up to 3 months when you first begin birth control.

But if you have not started using birth control yet you wait until the Sunday after your period and then take your first pill, this is called "the Sunday start"

What are the chances of being pregnant if you missed one pill but took it 13 hours later and had unprotected sex 5 hours after that but then took your pill normally?

Not very high. I have missed 2 birth control pills before and I had unprotected sex with my husband and I did not get pregnant. I have heard that the birth control pill will still be in your blood stream for a while even if you miss one or two pills, but I am not for sure how true that is.

Can you take a birth control pill in the morning and an antibiotic at night and the birth control still work?

No. That won't decrease the effects of the antibiotic on the birth control's efficiency. The only safe way is to use alternative forms of birth control while taking the antibiotic and for at least two weeks after finishing the antibiotics. Don't have unprotected sex during that time because you are at an increased risk of pregnancy. What time you take the pills won't help that - sorry :)


Will oxytetracycline affect the pill?

Yes, Oxytetracycline will effect how birth control pills work and may put you at risk of pregnancy. I am not certain if it will have a similar effect on the morning after pill. Refrain from having unprotected intercourse while on your antibiotics and use protection for 2 weeks after you have finished your antibiotics and if you are on birth control, this should prevent pregnancy from occurring. If you do have unprotected intercourse, perform a pregnancy test 2-3 weeks later.


If a girl finishes her old birth control and takes a placebo for a week then starts her new birth control the day of her period and has unprotected sex the second day of her period is she pregnant?

Changing birth control pills doesn't increase your risk of pregnancy if you started the new pack on time. It is possible to get pregnant even while using the birth control pill correctly, however, so take a pregnancy test if you're having symptoms of pregnancy.


Can you still get pregnant while on birth control?
