It would be best to check with your GP. I know that St.John's Wort can affect the contraceptive ability of Microgynon 30, as can;

  • Antibiotics (such as ampicillin and rifampicin)
  • Griseofulvin (Used to treat fungal infections)
  • Phenylbutazone (An anti-inflammatory drug used to treat some types of joint diseases)
  • Phenytoin, Primidon, Phenobarbiton and some other medicines used to treat people with epilepsy such as carbamezepine.

I would highly suggest you give your gp a ring and find out from him/her.
