Scarleteen

Hello again,
I had another question about my bcp. I'm just trying to learn more about it.

When I went to take my pill, I noticed a small scratch or nick in the pill. Basically it was a tiny tiny white mark on the blue pill. If I take it as I normall do, I wouldn't have even noticed. I was just examining it too closely because it was a different generic. It was very tiny.

Is this pill still effective? I didn't notice a chunk of it missing or anything, just looked like a scratch from when i pushed out the pill. Like I said, I'm probably the only person who would notice something that small

Hi Justwondering,

No, this is not going to change the effectiveness of your birth control. Given some of the concerns you've had while on the pill, are you feeling comfortable with it being your primary form of contraception? Or are you interested in pursuing different methods?
