I am on the pill and taking penicillin and i have read that taking antibiotics can cause the bc not to work i had sex with my boyfriend and now worried i may be pregnant. I also missed a pill as well and still had sex....... Is it possible to be pregnant?
Yes it is possible to be pregnant. Antibiotics will interfere with the effectivness of your birth control, and you should have used alternative measures while you were on the antibiotics, such as a condom. Missing or forgetting your birth control is another problem. It doesn't take long for the hormone in the pill to leave your body, so forgetting it leaves you unprotected and a sitting duck for pregnancy. Of course it depends on when you had unprotected sex. Have you missed your period yet?
so are you
