A member asked:

What's the likelihood that my birth control can be affected by a multivitamin?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Low: Most multivitamin don't affect birth control pills. However, there are herbs that can affect birth control pills. So if your multivitamin contains high doses of herbs such as St. John's Wort, they may interfere with the pill. Best to check each herb if you have questions. Best wishes!
