Hi can I use Ascorvite max when using Vibin contraceptive pills? Will this not reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills?

Ascorvita MAX is a dietary supplement containing the maximum dose of vitamin C 1000 mg, as well as vitamin D 2000 IU. In turn, vitamin C, i.e. ascorbic acid (eg Ascorvita) - used in a dose above 1000 mg can change the absorption and concentration of ethinylestradiol and make the cycle irregular, also sudden withdrawal of vitamin C can reduce the level of estrogen in the blood - in both cases, a change in the concentration of hormones in the blood increases the risk of side effects, which may result in an increased risk of ovulation and unplanned pregnancy. Therefore, it is not recommended to use vitamin C at a dose above 1000mg and Vibin contraceptive pills at the same time.
