One out of four women become pregnant despite using birth control or family planning methods according to experts in the United Kingdom. In the UK alone, more than 14,000 women that attended family planning clinic became pregnant despite using reliable forms of birth control such as pills or long acting contraceptives.

How can I prevent birth control pills from failing?

The failure rate of birth control pills can be reduced by adhering to some of the instructions that guide proper use such as:

Do not forget to take the pill daily and make sure you begin at the right time

Do not combine other medication with birth control without checking for drug interactions. For instance, medications for migraine, seizure and some infections (e.g. tuberculosis or meningitis) interfere with the pill making it less effective in preventing pregnancy.

Treat bowel problems promptly because this may affect absorption of the pill

Always take a mini-pill (progestron only pill) at exactly same time daily
