Does the use of a probiotic help to weaken the effectiveness of contraceptive pills during antibiotic therapy?
I have been taking Yasminelle tablets for 3 years. For a week I have to take the antibiotic Ramoclav. If I take a probiotic during this time, will the effect of the tablets be preserved? Does a probiotic help that an antibiotic can weaken the effects of contraception?

Antibiotics disrupt the composition of the bacterial flora in the intestines, necessary to convert the hormones contained in all types of pills into active forms, which limits their absorption from the tablets into the blood. Therefore, in the case of antibiotic therapy, there is a possibility of weakening the effect of contraception. A probiotic can rebuild the bacterial flora, but there is no clear information that the use of a probiotic prevents the effectiveness of contraceptive pills from being weakened. The most appropriate solution will be to use an additional method of contraception (condom) during all antibiotic therapy. I also recommend a youtube video on this topic:
