Antibiotics on birth control Posted: 04-10-08 11:12am
Hi I just joined this board. I found it
from googling my problem. I've been on the
pill for about 4 and a half years. The
past three weeks I've been more stressed
than ever, with bills, being in my last
semester of college, homework,
presentations, work, family committments
(weddings, showers, etc), I'm just
stressed. I also was on antibiotics for
the last 10 days of my pills because of a
sinus infection. I've been on antibiotics
before (not this kind, but others) and it
has never affected my period. I always
start my period like clockwork, but now
I'm a day late. My boyfriend and I always
have protected sex, and I never missed a
pill. My period is a day late so far, but
I'm freaking out because I'm so regular on
them. Could there be a possibility that
I'm pregnant? This has never happened
before. Thank you.

your period is probably late because you
are so stressed out, or it could be caused
from something else, it could be the
antibiotics too. if you and your bf always
use condoms and you take you rpill (which
would have been ineffective with your
antibiotics) you shouldn't be pregnant.
Try not worrying about it (i know its
hard) but it might make your period come.
If it would make you feel better, too, you
can always take a pregnancy test just to
make sure, if your period is late it would
show a positive now if you realy were
pregnant.
