BCP's and antibiotic: Broad spectrum antibiotic(which doxycycline) is, will lower the effectiveness of BCP's. It is prob the best idea to consider the entire BCP cycle as compromised. When you take antibiotics, you should continue with your BCP but also use additional method of BCP during the entire cycle. ie, BCP + condom
