A member asked:
Does having acid reflux make birth control pills less effective?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If your pill makes it into the stomach it will eventually pass on to the absorptive surfaces of your gut and be able to do its job. Reflux, though an irritating problem will not interfere with that process.
