It is just a coincidence.
Probiotics don't cause infection. They are in fact friendly bacteria which are essential for the health of intestines, mouth, and vagina. They are used along with the prolonged course of antibiotics so that the friendly bacteria which are natural inhabitants of the intestines are replenished (if they have been destroyed by the antibiotics ).
