	Asked by Dr. Nitin Chavan (Female; 29 ) on Fri 17, Apr 2009 07:49am :
	Hi, i started my contraceptive pill a few days ago, about 2 weeks ago i was put on antibiotics. On my 5th day of my course my partner & i had unprotected sex, i still had my peroid as normal. Do i have to wait till my next peroid to see if im pregnant?

	Answer by Dr. Namita Shrivastava (doctor) on Wed 29, Jul 2009 07:44am: Hi, From what I understand from ur question is that you are on pills and have had an antibiotic course this month during which you had unprotected sex.If you had normal periods afterwards then need not worry.You are not pregnant. So don't be stressed.Hope this helps.Always feel free to contact in future too for any queries.
