You probably lost most of it yes. As for how it will affect your birth control you need to call Planned Parenthood or the office of the doctor who gave them to you to ask. It depends on what type of pill you are taking I am sure.

eek! Most of the pill should have been dissolved by that point but for today and tomorrow I suggest using another method of BC just to be on the safe side. You should be back to normal in a couple days.

It would have deffinately have effected it, i had food poisioning one day and was sick all day ever hour, i phoned NHS help line becuase i was away from home and thats what my mum told me to do incase it was something else. They asked me if i was taking ne pills, i said i was taking BCP but was on my week break but the nurse said when i resume im still to take extra precautions.

If you have the flu, then don't have sex, unless they don't care, or they gave it to u! It could be the fake pill, do you know if it is the one that is fake or not? Usually one does not matter. Anyway, you can take some castor oil every few hours (no more than one teaspoon full every 4 hrs, or 1/2 every 3 during one day, that is alkaline, and flu can't handle alkaline. Or take alkaseltzer as directed- it is alkaline too). (casror oil can give u diaria-but u probably have that already)-so use alkaseltzer, unless you have a high feever, then use the castor oil. Eat only fruit for breakfast, then vegitables for the rest of your meals, cut out fats, and sugars. When you feel better go for it. Remember never take two of your pills in one day. I have had enough girlfriends to know this stuff. You can only get pregnant within 3 to 5 days before your period. Masters and Johnson say 3 days. Try a rubber for a few days if u absolutely cannot get preg. remember that those pills can cause breast cancer, the news recently said the 8% drop in breast cancer was due to women cutting out hormone pills. see link http://www.iht.com/articles/2006/12/15/healthscience/web.1215cancer.php But even though it was the menepause hormones, are they not the same things basicly? Don't risk it! They are both hormones! * Do you know how they make a hormone? They dont pay her. *The rest is no joke!
