I take birth control pills but ive been on
antibiotics because I was sick a lil while
ago but I just found out that antibiotics
can make the birth control pills not work.
So my question is, if im pregnant and im
still taking birth control pills & my
antibiotics until im supposed to get my
period which is in 2 weeks, would taking
those pills harm the baby? Im very
worried any input would be wonderful!
Usually when you are pregnant you have to
tell the dentists and etc etc. Because
they give you different medications when
you are pregnant so it wont hurt the
baby.
What type of anti. Are you taking?

Penicilin (spelling?) .... What about the
birth control pills should I stop taking
them just in case or should I take them
until my period is due?

funny that you say that dalicialynn... I
found out I was pregnant mid may (which I
was planning but didn't know that we
succeeded so soon) but found out a month
later that my baby had actually died the
month before. Now looking back I remember
taking an antibiotic for strep throat just
before I found out that I was pregnant.
You never really know why you miscarry,
now you got me thinking...

I took pencillin for a bladder infection a
few weeks ago.
The doc made a preg test and I said "i
doubt it, I take bcp" and he said "could
be tho" and smiled. I wasn't preggers, oh
well! :p
but he gave me pencillin too and I
realized at the end of the package that
they lower the effeciency. I must say he
dissapointed me for not telling me to use
some other protection.
Not that I would have anyway! :p
hehe.
Well I got my period just as planned.
No I wouldn't say you should stop taking
your bcp unless you miss your period.
Doing that would just increase the chance
of you conceiving now if you had sex the
last 5 days!
