On the pill while taking antibiotics. Could I be pregnant?!


Question: On the pill while taking antibiotics!. Could I be pregnant!?
I had strep throat back on May 2!. I went to the doctor that day and she put me on Amoxicillin!. I took the antibiotic for about 6 days and quit!. About the 3 day I was taking it I started my period!. This shouldn't have happened because I was in the middle of the 2nd month of my 3 month pill pack (Seasonique, I take the pill for 3 months straight then get my period every three months)!. I was on this period for 3 weeks and then stopped on May 24!. I didn't have sex during that time between May 2-24!. However, I started having sex the day I quit bleeding and have continued to have sex about every other day since then!. I know antibiotics lessen the effect on BC pills, but I was wondering what are my chances of being pregnant considering I continued to take my pill during that whole time and I just stopped bleeding about 1 1/2 weeks ago!? I know my chances are slim, but if my antibiotic made me bleed for 3 weeks, how do I know it didn't make the pill completely ineffective!? Could I be pregnant!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Take a pregnancy test!. Actually antibiotics cancel out the birth control!. You are suppose to take the antibiotics the time you are suppose to and then use protection for about a week after you stop takeing the antibiotics to be entirely sure you arent pregnant!.
You also may want to hurry with that because if you are pregnant you wont miss your period for another month and i dont think taking the pill while you are pregnant is very safe either!. Good Luck and i hope everything works out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you shouldnt be because it only doesnt work while you are on the antibioticWww@Answer-Health@Com
