“birth control and iron supplements ”
I got a blood test done and it showed that I am low on iron. I was told to get an slow release iron supplement over the counter by a pharmacist, but they did not know that I am on birth control. I searched a little to make sure the iron supplement would not effect my birth control, but I got mixed answers. I just want to make sure the iron will not change the effectiveness of my birth control.
