Avoid pregnancy!: As you know, Aubagio affects the immune system and is principally used in the treatment of relapsing multiple sclerosis. It is known to cause birth defects. Reliable contraception is imperative. Condoms can be very reliable if used properly 100% of the time. If you are having regular sex, however, I would strongly recommend an implant, IUD, oral/pill or injectable contraceptive. Good wishes.
