    It worked fine when I was on it and taking ecstacy, but then again I never did ask a doctor.

    To the best of my knowledge, there is no interaction between contraceptive pills and ecstacy.

    Somone asked a similar question on Erowid and received the following answer -
    To the best of our knowledge no commonly used recreational drugs decrease the efficacy of birth control pills. We have seen no journal articles published which suggest such an interaction, nor have we heard such reports from individuals. Women using various birth control pills regularly take MDMA, mushrooms, LSD, etc without any problems.
    As is the case under any circumstances, vomiting (or severe diarrhea?) shortly after taking oral contraceptives could remove the pill from the system faster than it can be absorbed. This should be noted because some people experience these effects after taking various psychoactives.

    On a slightly related matter MDA is known to lead to downstairs infections in women, though not MDMA, which no one really understands.

    Just another good reason to test your pills, especially if you are of the female bent.
