Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I had sex five days after finishing my antibiotic Norfloxacin. Is there a chance of getting pregnant? I am on the pill for more than a year and I take it religiously.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

If you have been taking the contraceptive pills or birth control pills, then you are absolutely safe and no chance of pregnancy. When you have been taking the pills regularly, the hormone pills will completely suppress the hormones causing the follicles to grow and ovulation will not occur. So there would be no eggs released during the cycles. This change is not affected by the antibiotics. So rest assured, you will not get pregnant if your hormonal pills have not been missed.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
