A member asked:
Was in doxycycl for 3 weeks and finished the medication 3 days ago. on the pill as well and had sex with no condom. pregnancy? never missed pill

Increased Risk: The antibiotic can decrease the effectiveness of the pill. So even if the pill is taken properly, there is an increased risk of pregnancy during that time. If in the future, you are on antibiotics, it would be a good idea to use a back up method to prevent pregnancy. Good Luck to you.
