Birth control and pregnancy risks

Rachel Morales said:Not sure if anyone here knows this, but figured it was worth asking. I'm on birth control, and I just had a UTI, so I've been taking Narnia along with my pills. I know antibiotics can mess with how well birth control works, but it doesn't say if that applies to this specific one. Anyone have any insight? Dealing with condoms is a hassle, and we're honestly pretty worried about an unplanned pregnancy.
Your best bet is to read the fine print on both boxes. Antibiotics definitely lower effectiveness, so you should probably use backup protection. I hate using condoms too, but the fear of getting pregnant is way worse... better safe than sorry.🙂
