Breakthrough bleeding

I am currently experiencing breakthrough bleeding. I am currently also on antibiotics and wondered if this could be a contributing factor to the bleeding. I have been experiencing mild cramping and light to medium bleeding in a light pink colour.

Antibiotics can interfere with absorption of the pills. Be extra careful. Be sure you have neg pregnancy test.
Yes antibiotics frequently interact with birth control pills and you should use an alternative method to avoid pregnancy until you finish the pack of pills
