Do rolaids effect birth control pills?

No they don't. The only thing that does is some antibiotics .

Should birth control be given out in school?

Yes and No.

Yes. Young people tend to make mistakes - like getting pregnant. Anything that adults can do to keep them from ruining their lives is welcome. Kids who don't use condoms need all the help they can get.

No. Teen minds work differently than adult minds. When teens receive birth control, they begin to think that sex is okay, as long as it's safe. In many households, people are taught to wait till marriage, so the schools could in some cases teach differently. Birth control and condoms should be passed out only with parent approval. If birth control is not given with permission, schools could receive complaints.

Can you stop acne caused by birth control by going OFF of birth control pills?

Unfortunately there can be many side effects due to taking birth control pills. These, among others include skin irritation, increased pimples, and/or acne. If these symptoms are as a direct result of the birth control pills, when you stop taking them, the symptoms will indeed clear up. Remember that there are many types of birth control, and that you may just need to switch brands to clear up your skin. In any case, consult your doctor or even your pharmacist to see what other options they may be able to offer. Take care and good luck. Dr.B

Is not being able to get wet caused from taking birth control?

That is a possible symptom --not terribly common, but not unheard of. Contact your health care provider, as a change of brands may help the problem.

Could you get pregnant if your boyfriend used the pull out method wiped his penis off with a dry rag and continued having sexwhat are my chances plus I just experienced an abortion about 5wks ago...?

Yes you had unprotected sex. After an abortion the cycle starts all over again. The pull out method is not a birth control method at all. There is always pre-ejaculate containing sperm and this time also semen left in the urethra most likely. Get on birth control ASAP! But first take the morning after pill. And don't forget the pregnancy test 2 weeks from now.

What will happen if you take your pill twice and don't take it till the next moring late?

It all depends on what brand of birth control you take, and what "phase", or "week" you are in.

In other cases, skipping even one pill (or prolonging the placebo week) could cause a failure in effective pregnancy prevention.

Different brands/types of pills have varying hormonal levels and will have different effects when pills are missed. In some cases, you may be able to simply resume taking your pill at the regular time the day you normally do, after missing a pill and move on with life.

When ever you "miss" a dose, or forget to take your birth control pill, you should use a back up method if you are sexually active to help protect against pregnancy. Also be aware that some brands of pills are multi-phasic, which means that pills in a single pack of birth control have differing levels of hormones, so depending on which week you are in when you miss the pill will determine what you need to do. Your health care provider's recommendations about how to proceed is the SAFEST option.

You could also call the pharmacy you get your pills from, or call a place like Planned Parenthood. Places like this usually have a 24 hour emergency line and they can help. Also, you may find information on the pamphlet that you got when you picked up your pills, or on the insert that is inside the pill box.

Does a multivitamin affect the birth control pill?

Since some multivitamins contain additional ingredients, you should talk with your health care provider or pharmacist with your bottle of multivitamins in hand. Some herbs may affect how well the birth control pills works.
Yes, you can take the birth control pill and also take multivitamins. They do not interact.

Is it normal to go six or more weeks between periods a few months after quitting birth control?

Yes! This can be very normal. It's all in what kind of bc you were using. I used depo for about a year and didn't get a period for a little over a year after stopping. Hello there. Yes this is quite a common occurance in a lot of women after stopping birth control pills. Some lucky women go on to have regular monthly periods while the majority of women, experience irregular periods for a few months after stopping birth control. It generally takes around three months for birth control to be out of your system so by the fourth or fifth month of stopping the pills, your periods should be becomming more regular.
