An iron supplement shouldn't interfere with your Birth Control.

I have been taking iron for the past 5 months (one 100mg tablet a day) and I am also using birth control. Both of these were prescribed to me by my doctor, so I doubt there is any negative interaction. Nor have I had any problems with my birth control in the past few months either, so yes I think it's safe.

Hormone pills are NOT necessarily birth control pills, so you should make sure that it is intended for the correct usage. And no, you can't get pregnant on the last week of the inactive pills, you've already been taking three weeks of the active pills by then, which is why those pills are for the last week of your cycle; which usually are some sort of iron supplement.
