Is there a change in the effectiveness of a birth control pill if you don't eat very well? I live in a college dorm and eat a lot of fatty foods b/c they are always avaliable. I feel tired a lot, and I'm guessing that's b/c I'm not getting enough good nutrition. I try taking those children's vitamin supplements but forget most of the time. I'm making sure I eat better now. But can eating unhealthy before (not working out either) decrease the birth control pill's effectiveness? Or does it work fine and I'm gonna have to deal with physical effects like being tired all the time? Thanks for reading.

A good multi-vitamin would be a good idea - why not just take them every day when you take your pill?
