Antibotics affect your period??
| Tue, 11-04-2003 - 2:39pm |
Does anyone know if antibotics can prevent your period? I know it can lessen the affects of the pill, but what about your period? It has never happened to me in the past, but my husband and I are trying and my period is a few days late and the test I did last night was negative. I feel different though. Anyone have any insights?

Are you my lost twin??:) No just joking...I have been experiencing the same things...well I don't know your symptoms or anything, but I recently took some antibiotics (well once in August and once the middle of October) and I didn't know it could effect the pill, until a few weeks ago, and my period was all wonky and stuff and that's never happened to me, I really don't know if antibotics effect your period...I really never thought about it, I thought I was pregnant, and we tested also negative the day after my period was supposed to start and all I had was spotting...but than it picked up, but not like a regular period should and today my period was supposed to stop, and it stopped late last night, and I still feel the same way, but now i feel worse, more light headed and headaches up the ying yang and a lot of dizzyness, and I think I feel some nausea coming on, my stomach feels so tight and bloated it's really uncomfotable....I don't know what's going on with us, but if you find out anything before me, please let me know, and I'll keep you posted too cause I am just as lost and confused as you are I bet....so best of luck with you, are you going to test again or just give up??? We don't know what to do, but if we are going to test again it will pribably be thie Friday, or next Friday...best of luck..

I did start my period this morning so at least now I know. How long have you been trying to get pregnant? We have been trying for the last few months now and hope to have good news soon. I did speak to an advice nurse yesterday who told me antibotics could delay my period by a few days. I never knew this! Hope this helps a little bit. Keep me posted on your progress. Good luck!
