Well, some anti-biotics basically neutralize the active ingredient in Birth Control medications. So it is best to use another form of contraception for the month that you took anti-biotics. So if you had sex without using a condom, then you basically had no form of contraception. To answer you question, yes you could be pregnant.
Antibiotics can decrease the effectiveness of the pill. It is very possible to get pregnant while taking andtibiotics and birth control pills at the same time. See your doctor.
Antibiotics do not have any significant impact on the effectiveness of birth control methods, such as the pill. If you are taking antibiotics, it is advisable to use an additional form of contraception, such as condoms, to prevent pregnancy.
I have heard that while taking antibiotics on birth control, if can weaken the effectiveness of your birth control, causing you to become pregnant. If you have worries, you should take a pregnancy test, or consult your doctor. Hope this helps.
While a few antibiotics can reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills, they don't have any significant effect on whether or not you get pregnant if you are not on the pill.
Yes, certain medications will interact with birth control rendering it ineffective. If you have started taking any antibiotics or other medications, you may be pregnant even though you were taking your birth control regularly.
If you had sex it is possible you are pregnant. The chance of getting pregnant on your period, while taking BCP is quite small.
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.
If you're pregnant, then you won't get your period
If you are definitely taking your pills at the same time everyday and are still having a period you should be okay. No method is 100% so I would recommend if you are concerned to use 2 methods such as a condom and birth control pills. If you believe that you could be pregnant, take a home pregnancy test. There actually are pregnant women that do have a type of spotting which seems like a period but that is mostly if the person doesn't have a regular period from the start. Typically the only ways that that you can get pregnant if you are on birth control: -If you aren't taking the BC at the same time/regularly every day. -If you switch from different forms of birth control (ie: depo prevera(sp?) and birth control pills) -If you are on antibiotics and birth control. Some antibiotics/medications interfere with birth control pills so make sure that you talk to your doctor when going on new meds. On shows such as "I didn't know I was pregnant," it does show different circumstances that women have become pregnant and not even know it... (such as still having a period and no weight gain). This is REALLY RARE though.
Antibiotics reduce the effectiveness of birth control. You should use a backup method like condoms.
There are certain antibiotics for women when they are pregnant that are safe to take, talk to your Dr. if you are on antibiotics and pregnant. Hope this helps.
Yes it can. Antibiotics also lower the effectiveness of birth control pills so there is a chance you may be pregnant. See your doctor for a blood test.
