This may sound dumb, but i got stung by a bee. but can it affect my birth control? i'm on sprintec

No.: Bee sting does not affect oral contraceptives. (Apparently, Sprintec will prevent the birds and the bees, but not the bees alone!

Not likely: As the bee envenomation(sting) shouldn't really disrupt the hormones in your birth control from regulating your fertility. Hope this helps.
