Question - (15 December 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 16 December 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Can diarrhea (excessive bowl movement) canel out your pill. No I no the pill can b affected if you get sick and I was wondering does diarrhea affect it in the same way. My boyfriend and I have regular sex and i am on the pill but we never use condoms and neither of us like them and we have been together 5years. Well about four weeks ago I had diarrhea on and off for days (has now been sorted) but was not sick with it so was feeling fine except for this so was able to have sex. However I am now late and have never been before in my life so I am just wondering is there any way this could have affected my pill from working

Thanks.

person12345 agony auntYes, yes, YES. Having it continuously for that many days almost certainly affected the pill. Vomiting, diarrhea, and antibiotics are the three huge things that cause the "but I took the pill perfectly, how am I pregnant?" situations. Get yourself a pregnancy test, and take care.
