Those who have gastritis may take contraceptives, but should be used with medical advice, because although there are no contraindications to the use of contraceptives in this case, they can cause gastric ailments such as nausea and vomiting in some people that may worsen in cases of gastritis, especially when it is not being treated.
Regarding their action, contraceptives can be used at the same time as the treatment for gastritis is made, because the drugs generally used for their treatment do not interfere with the action of oral contraceptives. Other alternatives of contraceptive methods, which do not include the use of hormones, are the intrauterine device (IUD) and the female condom.
The gynecologist is the specialist indicated to guide the best medicine to be used by the person with gastritis.
