Cautions with taking the pills?

Question

is there a certain week of the cycle that I should avoid having s*x ....because there is a higher risk of getting pregnant? I get stressed everytime I have intercourse becaue I fear of getting pregnant eventhough I take the pills on a daily basis

Answer 1

no

Answer 2

No.  You don't need to be concerned about a week of the cycle; however:

1) The main concern with the pill is that it isn't as effective when taken in combination with antibiotics.  If you're taking antibiotics, the chances are higher that you will become pregnant.

2) If you experience diarrhoea or vomiting at all, there's a chance that the pill may not have been metabolised first and then, once again, you have a higher chance of becoming pregnant and should avoid intercourse until the following day.
