Hi Lauren_10,

You can find out what substances do or do not interfere with the pill on this list: Something You Can Worry About Less: Interference and Hormonal Birth Control . If you don't see a medication listed on there at all, then you can assume it doesn't interfere.

How are you feeling in terms of only using the minipill as a method? Would you feel more comfortable backing up with condoms?

As an aside, please know that there's no need to post the same question in a thread multiple times. Just once is sufficient and someone will get to it as soon as they can.
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
