Hello,
Thanks for writing to us. While on hormone contraception, if antibiotics are used for any purpose, the efficacy of contraception is decreased and failures can occur. If you are pregnant, you should get a definitive reading on HPT if the hormone levels are sufficient. Else, you can go for the blood test for pregnancy as this is more sensitive and specific. I would also ask you to go for a trans-vaginal sonogram to confirm/exclude pregnancy for sure and also to know the status of the pelvic organs. Further management can be planned accordingly. Hope this helps.
