birth control effectiveness after vomiting Posted: 06-03-08 19:04pm
I went to the lake and ate a lot of suger
stuff like cup cakes.
didnt drink a lot of water.
Went on a hard core walk
came back and drank some captain morgan
and oh did I mention I get car sick.
Oh oh oh and the water was freezzzing!
Anyways long ride home... I finally get
there and By now am completely sick.
Threw up for 12 hours.
My question is
SINCE I THREW UP SO MUCH IS MY BIRTH
CONTROL STILL EFFECTIVE? AND COULD I GET
PREGNANT?

Continue taking your birth control as
normal. You should be fine. If you're
really worried about pregnancy, use
condoms until your period arrives to make
sure you don't increase your risk of
pregnancy.
If you're worried about sex you've already
had, wait until your period is late and
take a test.
Good luck.

It is unlikely to be a problem, since it
sounds like you took the pill many, many
HOURS before you threw up.
