I've been taking antibiotics for a throat/chest infection for the past 4-5 days........... and am also on birth control pills. Of course, my boyfriend being his randy self has convinced me on more than a few occasions to have sex, during this time. Since starting BC over a year ago, I've never had cause to take antibiotics, hence, the whole making the pill less effective thing completely slipped my mind.

I'm just wondering how high my risk factor is and what I should do in the meantime? I'm around about the middle of my pack, too. How convenient. *sigh* Are my odds of being pregnant very high? The last thing we need is a baby.

Man...I've taken antibiotics, and I'm not doctor, I'm just speaking from personal experience, I couldn't tell that my bc was working at ALL. I started taking the medicine in the middle of my period, and my period lasted the entire time I was taking the antibiotics, even while taking BC...so I could only deduce that the hormones were not working because the bleeding didn't stop. I don't know what the risk involved is that, but I would DEFINATELY use backup. Just my experiences..good luck!
