No. Green tea's good: Green tea should not affect the efficacy of your birth control in oral contraceptive form, or any other form for that matter. You would have to drink huge amounts of green tea to have any negative effects, most likely you would have kidney stones before your birth control was affected. I will double check the literature just to make sure and add a link if I find anything useful
