Antibiotics And Pregnancy

Can you become pregnant while taking antibiotics and using condoms?

This seems like a really silly question...I know antibiotics affect other types of birth control, like the pill, does it affect condoms the same way?

pretty much the only things that affect condom use are: age, condition (they might have holes or defects), whether they've been used before, and whether they're being used properly to begin with (are they the right size, is there room at the end for the semen, etc)

but antibiotics won't have any effect. Wink
