Does iron affect the effectiveness of birth control pills?

Hello. On the occasion of a routine blood test, I noticed that I had a little lower iron level than I should. Will any supplements supplementing, for example, iron, magnesium, vitamins of group B and D (I know that vitamin C above 1000mg) affect the effectiveness of Belara contraceptive pills? Once I read that iron supplements have an effect, and once that they do not and honestly it is stupid. Regards :)

Iron does not affect the effectiveness of contraceptive pills. There are no contraindications to supplementation with iron, magnesium, B vitamins, vitamins D and C when using tablets. I enclose an article about what preparations may weaken the effectiveness of contraception: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji
