What Causes Delayed Periods While On Triphasil?

Hallo Doctor . I have a few questions . Firstly what is the chance i could be pregnant when i took antibiotics with the pill ? And then i am on triphasil i never skip a pill and i drink it almost everyday between 5 and 6 the morning. But last month when i ended with my last red pill i dont know what i did but i just didnt start with the white ones i started the new pack about 2 weeks before the red pills without thinking. I am now on my fourth red pill again and my period havent come it always comes just a few minutes after i drank the fourth red pill. I had a miscarige last year march and im starting to get heavy low back pain . i am very tired everyday i get headics almost everyday and usualy i never do and i get the feeling of nausea but i cant let it out ? Do you think im pregnant ?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Some antibiotics are known to be associated with oral contraceptive pill failure, i.e., they may lead to unwanted pregnancy. Second, if you had unprotected intercourse before starting the white pill again (in your case a 2-week delay), there is a good chance that you might be pregnant. A simple urine pregnancy test will help you clear your doubts.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vishaal Bhat
