Yes, you are fine to continue taking your pill. You can always ask your pharmacist to be sure.

Answer 3

yes-unless you want to get pregnant

diflucan is not contraindicated for people on the contraceptive pill

read the leaflet  

Answer 4

Should be able to, diflucan is an anti-fungal and should not interfere with birth control medication. However, I would abstain from sexual activity until the infection has been cleared for a few days.

Answer 5

Yes, and unlike antibiotics, anti-fungal drugs should not decrease your pill efficacy.
