Bcp help
this morning i was taking my birth control pill and it got stuck on the roof of my mouth. I grabbed some water and tried to wash it down. Im not sure if i swallowed any of it before it dissolved. Then i ate breakfast about 10 minutes later. I was just wondering if there is an easier way to take these pills in order to avoid the above situation? Also would this change the effectiveness of bcp?

Re: Bcp help
Questionss,
This question has been answered for you repeatedly in previous threads, including here:
http://www.scarleteen.com/bb/viewtopic. ... 8813#p8813
If you are having problems swallowing the pill it can be broken into smaller pieces or dissolved. You just have to take the entire pill.
Given your post history I would suggest that you consider a different form of birth control that you may feel more comfortable with or to scaling back to a level of sexual activity that does not lead to concerns about pregnancy/ the effectiveness of your birth control.
While we can discuss different forms of birth control and/or scaling back sexual activity, we won't continue to reassure you about your pill use.
