I've heard of things here and there that can affect the birth control pill. i just want to know what does for sure.

Varies: The most common reason for the birth control pill not working is not taking it on time or missing days. There are some medicines, such as some antibiotics, that can interfere with the action of the bcp. Most common is the penicillins.
