Is Alternative Birth Control Measure Required While On Antibiotics?

I was recently on antibiotics and I m on norg-ee birth control. I started the antibiotics during the last half week of hormones in my pack and have since finished the antibiotics. I finished the antibiotic 2 days ago. I started my period on Monday and am finishing up my period now. My question is do I need to use alternative birth control measures since I have been on antibiotics or does it not matter due to where I am in my cycle (and have had my period). Thank you!

Hi, you don't need any other contraceptive measure as you have got your periods this time. Hope I have answered your question.
