My sister had her first child because her birth control failed due to another medication making it less effective.

No one warned her about that being a thing that can happen with that particular med. Not her doctor. Not the pharmacist. No one said a thing.. which is super fucked up. She was married at the time, but still. They were not ready for a kid(their words)

This was almost 20 years ago so I don't remember which med it was, and I'm hoping the medical community is better about this now.

It's really honestly amazing that there are so many people in this world that don't understand that, A, married couples use birth control and have regular sex and, B, that birth control can fail.

Are they all incels are something?

PSA: Antibiotics will make your birth control less effective.

Also no they do not warn most people about that.

Came here to say this. It's not some edge case medicine that people rarely encounter. Just you had a sinus infection and now you're pregnant!
