Will following the keto diet (super lo carb diet) affect birth control effectiveness at all?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: A ketogenic diet does not decrease the efficacy of birth control. Continue your birth control as prescribed. If following a ketogenic diet, discuss your plan for healthy weight loss with your doctor.
