Hi, Today I left my bag on the table by the window for a few hours and the sun was shining through, I only realised because when I lifted my bag the metal zips on my bag were warm, I keep my birth control pill in my bag in the front pocket and I keep it in the box that it comes from the pharmacy in,...

Thank you!

So 7 days no pills and then just start again as normal ?

Hi So I’ve taken microgynon 30 for two years and the doctor has just switched me to Rigevidon and has said it is the exact same pill but since it’s switching pills do I have to do anything different? I’ve taken my last microgynon 30 pill this morning and shouldn’t take any pills till next Friday now...

Can dymista nasal spray affect birth control pills if it goes down the back of your throat?

I sprayed deordorant when my pill pack was on my lap would the aerosol have any effect on my pills??

I had a loose stool around 8:30pm but took my pill at 3:15pm should I be worried about it affecting the efficiency? Do I need to take another?

If there was sperm on a towel and girl used it to dry herself down there after a shower would this class as direct contact that could cause pregnancy?

Could touching the pill packet with disinfectant on my hands have affected the pills at all?

Hi,

I was cleaning the floor with disinfectant then remembered I had to take my pill,
I didn’t wash my hands before taking it, could this have any effect on my pill?

Today is the last pill in my packet and about an hour after taking it I had really bad acid reflux, I never spat anything out just swallowed it again, should I be worried about the absorption of my pill?

I haven't had sex this month but my withdrawal bleed hasn't arrived and I'm due to start taking my pill again tomorrow

Why could this have happened, I took a test because I was panicking and it was negative

Is it only possible to get pregnant from your boyfriend?

can it be possible from using showers, toilets, towels etc

I'm worried I'm going to end up unintentionally pregnant and my boyfriends going to think I've cheated on him because we're not having sex at the moment

I just realised this wouldn't be possible because sperm require their semen to do anything and when it's mixed with toilet water the sperm are therefore useless?

Is that right? Or am I completely wrong?

Does sperm die in toilet water

This is slightly embarrassing I had to unblock the toilet with my hand and now I've just considered the possibility that if there was sperm in the toilet water could that transfer to my hand I did wash my hands afterwards but if the water had dripped on my trousers is there a possibility or does toi...

Ok, thank you for everything!

Thanks for chatting with me, it's been a great help! So I can safely say now that no sexual activity = no pregnancy risk, just not possible to cocreate a pregnancy when there isn't a male in the room with you correct? I think I'm going to consider talking to my doctor about this again, I had to a li...

that's really helpful thank you! So basically I can get it out of my head that I'm going to get pregnant from everyday activities because things like using the bathroom etc are not on that guide It's only going to be things that my boyfriend and I do together that can create that risk correct? I had...

But I have been reading other posts tonight and realise that if sperm has been deposited anywhere other than the vulva then there is no risk

So I'm going to try my best to take a break from reading posts and asking questions and just relax about this for a bit

I think I'm not sure I understand at times and when I do understand I then don't trust that I'm telling myself the correct information It's like I know that if I'm not doing sexual acts with my boyfriend there's no risk of pregnancy but then I also then think wait what if there's been sperm left som...

No sexual contact = no risk correct?

Pregnancy is impossible without a male in the same room as you unless through artificial insemination

The back of my underwear touched the toilet seat after urination (sorry) could this cause any pregnancy/infection risks? As I was unable to change as in a public place

Thanks for the reply! I just read that link and wanted to clarify Is the area where the sperm/semen/ejaculate is or was hotter/colder than body temperature? - the lotion would be colder than body temperature and would be in by room so definitely not the right temperature Has it been sitting out for ...

Would sperm survive in moisturising cream?
