Q: Zinc supplements while on birth control

asked by: sinful on July 3rd, 2008

I am currently taking Ortho and I was wondering if taking zinc supplements everyday would affect it. Would it give me a higher chance of getting pregnant since I am taking these supplements?

Thanks in advance.

Zinc supplements probably don't decrease the birth control pills' efficiency.
