    Yes, you could be pregnant. Even used perfectly, birth control is not 100% effective and some antibiotics, such as rifampin, greatly reduce it's effectiveness.

    You want to wait for at least a week after the expected start date of your period and test with first morning urine. If you still aren't sure, see your doctor and ask for a blood test.

    Yea I took a home test but it came out negative so I think its to early. So I have been breast feeding for 4 months and I am not making enough milk for him so I use formula also so could that have increased the chance of me being pregnant... I stop taking my birth control a day after I had unproctect sex because I kept bleeding off and on every week for two months and I always forgot to take it on time or I would miss a day would that have lowered the effect to?
