Hi..
I'm currently taking doxycycline for acne and my period is about 2 weeks late..
I recently just moved from a hot country to cold country..
Before I moved, I had sex with my boyfriend.. it was very brief and afterwards I gave him a blowjob so he did not ejaculate into my vagina but into my mouth..
I'm very concerned of being pregnant.. could it be possible that my period is late due to stress or usage of antibiotics?
Yes it is a possibility from stress, moving, and medication that your period is late. However anytime the penis enters the vagina pre can cause a pregnancy. I would get a home pregnancy test and test your first morning urnie.
Doxycycline is an antibiotic. Why are you taking it for acne?
This medication can delay your period, however the fact that you had sex could possibly mean that you are pregnant. The withdrawl method is not an effective method of birth control. Pre-ejaculate (which he releases during sex, and cannot feel it) has sperm in it. A low amount of sperm, but it still has it. Remember, it only takes one sperm to fertilize an egg. So yes, pregnancy is a possibility.
After your period has been delayed for 2 weeks, take an HPT using your first morning urine. Or, another option is to get a blood test from your doctor. If you are pregnant, you need to know so you can start getting the proper care. :)
My doctor has prescribed doxycycline for my acne.. I started eating them about 2 weeks after my period ends and currently I have 1 more week dosage to go.. is it likely that I would get my period after I finish the medication or can it come anytime?Quote:

I have never heard of antibiotics being prescribed for acne, but then again I could be out of the loop on this one.. lol :)Quote:

Doxcycline is used to treat acne however you should find out for sure if you are pregnant or not first before taking anymore of this medication.
It is also used to treat UTI's, that's why it perked my interest.. lol.Quote:

I have been told by my doctor that pre-ejaculate does contain sperm. While it is a small amount of sperm, it is definitely enough to get you pregnant, because like I said, it only takes one sperm to fertilize an egg. You should always take the proper precautions when you are sexually active. If you don't want to be a mother, use birth control, because the withdrawl method is not very effective.Quote:

Doxycycline isn't used for acne
Im taking it beacause of inflammation in gaps behind my eyes x
Any antibiotic can cure your skin. Next time you are sick and are perscribed antibiotics if you have a blimish you can watch it disappear over a day or two...Quote:

The missed period was unexpected and is no fun as I still had cramps and bloating, I am not too concerned because it could be stress related as well with the work load and lack of personnel and time zone difference and climate changes.
We'll have to see what happens next. I'd rather not have my period than get malaria.
Doxycycline is an antibiotic for acne because acne is a bacteria in your skin and topical things don't always work. I am currently taking it and it has worked wonders for my face. I have tried everything and this is the only thing that works.
It is like an infection in your skin
