My G/F is on that jab thingy to stop her getting pregnant n stuff, and she's been prescribed antibiotics, just wondering if the 2 would cancel each other out or anything? Weve been having sex and she isnt pregnant :: Touches wood ::

any advice?

    I've just rang the fpa helpline and apparently antibiotics don't affect the effectiveness of the injection. If you are unsure always ask your GP when you (or your gf) are given medication - and you can always call the following helplines:

    Brook Advisory Centres
    Advice, counselling and medical help around contraception, pregnancy, abortion and sexual health.
    Telephone: 0800 0185023
    www.brook.org.uk

    Family Planning Association
    Information service on family planning and all aspects of sexual health.
    Helpline: 0845 3101334
    www.fpa.org.uk
