When using Novynette, will I be able to eat citrus and use vitamin C without the risk that it will weaken the effect of the tablets?
Good morning, in a few days I start my first package and I read that vitamin C weakens their effect. I generally like vitamin C, my diet contains a lot of citrus, and most of my face cosmetics contain vitamin C (serum with a stable vitamin and the rest of the creams have it). If I take the tablets at 9 p.m. every day, will I be able to eat citrus normally and use vitamin C care on the second day without the risk that it will weaken the effect of the tablets?

In general, vitamin C affects the action of birth control pills, but in high doses, i.e. above 1000 mg. You will not exceed this amount by eating citrus. Exemplary content of vitamin C in citrus (in 1kg): pomelo - 610 mg lemon - 530 mg orange - 500 mg red grapefruit - 380 mg white grapefruit - 340 mg lime - 290 mg mandarin - 270 mg Vitamin C contained in cosmetics also does not affect the effectiveness of contraception, because it works mainly at the place of application, i.e. on the skin. Therefore, if you take birth control pills, you can continue to consume citrus and use cosmetics with vitamin C without worrying about weakening the effect of birth control pills.
