How long after taking antibiotics is the
birth control pill considered fully
effective again? Took antibiotics 10/22
- 10/26 but then had unprotected sex on
10/31.

Odds are the sex wasn't safe. I have a
sister and a friend who each have
antibiotic/bc babies. You need to go
thru the cycle as if you just started the
pill before it is affective again.

Deanna-
i feel the same as the other girls.
Although it is probably 50/50 that you are
pregnant, you may want to treat yourself
as if you are, by making sure that your
hobbies, habits, and lifestyle, would be
okay during the first month of
pregnancy.
I am definately not saying that you are.
All i'm stating is that it is a
possibility. You wouldn't want to do
something now that could potentialy harm
the unborn baby, if indeed you happen to
be pregnant. So if you miss you next
period, I suggest you take a home
pregnancy test and then go from there.
Good luck- hope I helped!

Hey hey

medications dont mix with birth control
and they cancel each other out.... I had
a lady from planned parenthood come to my
school and she brought that up.. I
couldve heard wrong but thats what I
remeber her saying
