Would using antibiotics cause my wife to have a late period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: If your girlfriend is taking birth control pills as well, definitely. In fact, she may be pregnant. Ask her to take a pregnancy test if she is late. If she is not on the pill then it is unlikely that the cause of a late period was the antibiotics.
