implant, pill, antibiotics an oc lol PLEASE READ
in Baby
I have the implant fitted but my hormones were all over the place so the gp put me on the pill aswell. i was recently put on antibiotics an was told it would stop the pill from working but not the implant.
When i was pregnant with my son i had the condition OC (dunno if you know what that is) but all of a sudden today ive become extreamly itchy, which is the main symptom of OC. after reading the side affects of the antibiotics one is also itchin but as ive had OC before i know what the itchin feels like and it is horrible ive already made myself bleed scratchin my skin is now red raw.
do you think you can get OC when you are not pregnant? because its a reation to pregnancy hormones???? so im worried now
what do you think?

"Because they have the potential to cause
cholestasis it may be advisable to avoid the
antibiotics erythromycin and augmentin following
an OC pregnancy as other treatments are likely to
prove just as effective. The use of antibiotics should
be weighed against the risk of irritation to the
womb caused by a urinary tract infection."
So it sounds like it could be the antibiotics that are the problem.

I am alergic (sp?) to penicillin and it takes the form of me going bright red and itching all over! stop taking the tablets until you can see your doc.
