What should I do if I've extended my withdrawal bleeding interval and am now on an antibiotic?
Hello, I wanted to ask. I started taking the pill after a seven-day break on day 9. I accept belara. Plus, I drink the antibiotic Ofor, does the ophor affect the effect of contraception. And what should I do if I took a pill on day 9? There is no spare one.
