I am not sure about affecting your period but I do know that taking Antibiotics while on Birth Control can keep the pill from working effectively and therefore have a higher risk of getting pregnant. So while on antibiotics as well as atleast a week after (to ensure the antibiotics if out of your system) either refrain from intercourse or use a condom.
