Details:

I am taking OC pill now and I have a lazy bowel symdrome so I take traditional senna leaf drugs as luxative.
May I get pregnancy unfortunately?
If that may be, how should I do?

If the senna leaf is taken soon after the oc and you have "violent" diarrhea you run the risk of not absorbing the oc - and hence increase your risk of pregnancy. You are best to talk to your pharmacist or doctor about a safer more appropriate laxative.
