I am 19 years old and female. I decided, I don't want to have sex with just anybody but I'm talking to a guy and it always sparks the question in my head.
I want to be prepared of course but my main problem is, I have health problems. I get bacterial infections on a monthly basis and the doctors have no idea what the cause is yet. With this issue, I'm on antibiotics a lot. So much that I may become immune to them soon(thats another problem in itself) and I heard they interfere with the Pill.
I've never seen my "girl" doctor yet but I want to be prepared. Do you think she might just say, lay off Sex until i'm officially off the antibiotics? Or is there another form that the antibiotics won't interfere with?
I just want to note, I'm really not planning on having sex anytime soon but I still want to know. Just in case, situation. (link)

You definitely need to see a gynecologist. The infections are something you need to have taken care of. Here's to hoping it clears up for you soon.
And yes, antibiotics can interfere with the viability of the pill. But there are other options available to you like the cervical cap and the diaphragm. I've heard contradictory information about the effectiveness or safety of the sponge and the deprovera shot. Ask your doctor and see what he/she recommends.

The infections are hopefully being taken care of with my Family doctor. Thanks for the clarification on the pill!
