Well... my fiancee called me this
morning with some interesting news. Since
she has been on Yasmin (over a year), she
has always started on the same day...
today.
Last saturday... she didnt feel good...
had a sore throat and was tired...
it got worse sunday so we went to the
doctor and he put her on omoxycilin....
the same day she started her
placebo (spelling?)
Well... she started to feel a lot
better... but... she didn't start as
ushual.
The last time we were sexually active was
a week or so ago... and no fluids
were exchanged from what i could tell...
but we were not using a codom or any
other form besides the birthcontrol...
we just stopped before anything happend.
So... from what Ive read... I know
antibiotics can effect birthcontrol in
wierd ways... so would this be one
of them? could it be because she was
sick? or... should we be worrying
and go take a pregnancy test?
Thanks all!!

She needs to call both the person who
prescribed her birth control and the
person who prescribed the antibiotic, and
ask them if this particular antibiotic
interferes with the kind of birth control
she is on.

she cant get a hold of her doctor...
and the one who perscribed it was at a
local mec convient care place... and
wasnt very bright at that...
anyone else have issues like this? ive
read other places... being sick or
taking antibiotics can cause these issues
as if you arnt on the pill... can make
you skip a month.. or be a few days
late...
anyone else?

She is likely not pregnant, because your
last sex act was when she was protected by
the pill.
You have not had sex since, so that also
helps.
She can start the pill asap, but she must
wait 7 full days for it to become
effective.

she didnt ever stop taking her pill...
but our thoughts were correct...
she started this afternoon instead of in
the morning.. kinda odd... but i
guess it was because she was sick and
all...
