Probiotics (and prebiotics) would be expected to help counter the concern.

people engaging in risky sexual behavior are more likely to need antibiotics, and their behavior also puts them more at risk of certain cancers.

This is not exactly breaking new ground.

Exactly. Gotta replace the healthy bacteria killed off by the anti-biotics.

"Taking antibiotics is likely to have a detrimental impact on the gut microbiota. Antibiotics can unintentionally induce gut dysbiosis, which may lead to permanent changes to the natural gut environment. This disruption to the gut microbiome may be what drives this increase in risk."

After taking 1gr/day for 7 years for severe acne (18-25) I tried expoing to the Doc that was the reason I wasn't digesting anything (esp. dairy) and couldn't gain weight.

While he agreed that my digestive system was "underperforming", he dismissed the idea the antibiotics were a factor. ("Well, uh....there are no studies indicating that".....)

Lesson learned: If the doc hasn't seen a study, you can't possibly be right....

Yes, I've been taking enzymes ever since, but have determined probiotics are most effective.

There are probably occasions in which something herbal can cure an infection without the risks of synthetic antibiotics.
I recently learned that cloves are anti-bacterial and anti-viral.
