Hi,
I've posted on here before because I value the opinions of the EmpowHER women who usually answer my questions. Anyways, I've been on Trinessa Lo, a combination birth control pill, for almost a year. I take my pill everyday at the same time, have never missed one and never taken one late. On April 15th, at 12:00 in the morning, I started to experience the beginning of a terrible UTI. I went to the walk in that same day, and started an antibiotic that same day as well. I continued to take that antibiotic and my birth control as normal, and abstained from any type of sexual activity because I still very much had a UTI. On April 20th, 6 days into the anibiotic with one day left, the doctor called and said I had to start a NEW antibiotic and take it for seven days. The next day, April 21st, I started a new, 7 day antibiotic. At that point, I had 9 active pills before my break. That same night, I had sex WITH a condom and it did not break. I've had sex about 5 or 6 times after that throughout the course of my antibiotics, but it's ALWAYS been with a condom due to birth control / antibiotic conflict. I finished the antibiotics on Thursday, then took Friday and Saturday active pills, and started my break yesterday, Sunday. I had sex last night with a condom, but I'm just worried that I'm not doing everything right? My period is due in 2 days and I'm freaking out because I'm only relying on a condom basically. Also, throughout this course of antibiotics, I have had NO unprotected anything happening because I do not want to get pregnant! Sorry for the long question.. :/
