Question for girls?

Antibiotics interfere near the absorbtion of the pill by inhibiting the ezymes in the liver which process the hormones (cyp450).

So from the light of day that you started taking the antibiotics, your birth control hasn't be efficient - not satisfactory have be occupied to work. You may hold ovulated so you will obligation to use a backup form of contraceptive (such as condoms or abstinence) until you own finished the antibiotics and have seven consecutive days of alive pills within a row - so give or take a few three weeks agency. You could only just skip your time of year and start a strange pack of helpful pills quickly, next you will be protected seven days after the final antibiotic.

Normally, if the seven days after antibiotics take you into the hormone-free week you start a untried pack of moving pills instead of taking the sugar pills, otherwise you hold to continue until you own have seven involved pills after your spell beforehand you are protected against pregnancy, and the days beforehand your length don't count.
