No. it is just the pills making your periods lighter that usual. If you just started the medication it will take a month or two to get to its regular flow.

Will oxytetracycline affect the pill?
Yes, Oxytetracycline will effect how birth control pills work and may put you at risk of pregnancy. I am not certain if it will have a similar effect on the morning after pill. Refrain from having unprotected intercourse while on your antibiotics and use protection for 2 weeks after you have finished your antibiotics and if you are on birth control, this should prevent pregnancy from occurring. If you do have unprotected intercourse, perform a pregnancy test 2-3 weeks later.
