Soy, birth control interaction?
I've read before that soy and some other foods can interact with birth control pills. Is this true? I feel like if certain kinds of food interacted with birth control that there would be a lot more pregnancies. I can understand how taking a strong dietary supplement could interact with birth control but what about foods that contain soy?

Hi there FadedPassion,
Eating foods with soy in them shouldn't affect the effectiveness of your birth control - for a more detailed list of what can, check out Something You Can Worry About Less: Interference and Hormonal Birth Control.

Thank you! I didn't think that food would do anything. I course definitely see that supplement could affect it since it's taken in large quantities compared to food.
