Taking Gildess For Birth Control Pills. Will A Dietary Supplement Change The Effectiveness Of The Pill?
I am currently taking Gildess FE 1/20 birth control pills, and I know some dietary supplements can affect the effectiveness of the pill. The dietary supplement I am taking is Herbalife, but just a powder that controls hunger, and I take it in the form of a fruit shake. I just don't know if this can affect my birth control pills.
