hi im on yaz birth control and i just
started an antibiotic for and UTI but i
only took one pill, i had sex the day
before i started it and now i'm concerned
because i heard sperm can live inside you
for up to a week. he used a condom but he
took it off, so i think there was some
precum, but he pulled out so no actual
cum. i was just wondering what i should
do? so far i've stopped taking the
antibiotics, although i will need to start
them at some point because the UTI needs
treated

You better start taking the pills again.
Just be careful from now on while your on
the antibiotics. I'm sure your fine from
that one incident. But if your not taking
the medication then your UTI can get worse
and cause more problems. You only need to
not have intercourse or use a condom until
about 24 hours after you last pill, some
say not even that. But my boss always says
to wait the 24 hours to be on the safe
side. Hope this helps. I also hope you are
feeling better!

thanks so much, im a really paranoid
person and i had a few panic attacks over
it, you have no idea how much you've
helped. But i was also wondering if birth
control and the antibiotic together could
make me sick. i had a very bad allergic
reaction to the antibiotic including
throwing up, extreme diarrhea and very bad
anxiety. Could that be the combination of
the two or just the antibiotic? thanks!

Hey there sorry I havn't been on here for
awhile. I would say you had a reaction to
the antibiotic. Two put together usually
doesnt give you a reaction, it's one or
the other. And since you hadn't had a
reaction to the bc its probably the
antibiotic! Or you just had a touch of the
flu. Hope this helps!

Yeah I understand! If you are really
worried than take a test and find out. I'm
sure your fine. Good luck!
