if i become pregnant while taking the pill will the pregnancy test come out positive or negative?

Question

I started taking the pill after i had my son, one month later my husband and i started having unprotected sex. Everything was fine until I missed my period 2 months ago i just thought that maybe i was stressed or having some adjusting trouble to the pill (this is the first time ever on it). Then again this month no period. so I took 2 pregnancy tests both negative. So my question is, does taking the pill affect the result of the test?

Answer 1

yes. I got pregnant on the pill and after five mos. of pregnancy teste the Dr, FINALLY did a blood test and lo-and-behold -yes I was FIVE monts pregnant!! Ask your Dr. for a blood test

Answer 2

Taking the pill will not affect the result of the pregnancy test. I was on the pill and took a positive test.

If you think you may be pregnant and the tests aren't showing you the result you think it should be, visit your OBGYN for a blood test. That will tell you without a doubt what you need to hear.

Answer 3

The pregnancy tests look for a hormone known as hcg - which is not in any birth control pill I'm aware of (most contain synthetic estrogen/progestin hormones), although fertility drugs can skew results.
I would recommend going to your gyno and getting checked out. It could just be an adjustment to the pill, or it could be something else (are you breastfeeding??). Better safe than sorry.

Answer 4

No. There is no food*, no alcohol, no contraceptive, and no illegal or over-the-counter drug that can mess up your HPT results, and semen cannot affect the test. The only drugs that can affect pregnancy test results (in the form of a false positive) are prescription drugs that contain hCG (such as Profasi, Pregnyl, Ovidrel, etc.) They are prescribed for fertility treatments or other "female problems." If you are taking one of these drugs, ask your doctor how soon you can use a pregnancy test (different doses require different amounts of time to leave your system, so what works for one woman might not work for you.) *Food itself does not cause false results, but can affect how much urine you have and how dilute it is. Eating salty chips and drinking caffeine all day will result in more concentrated pee, whereas gorging on watermelon and ginger ale will result in lots of very dilute pee. Very diluted urine during very early pregnancy may result in a false negative. For best results, pee in a cup first and make sure your pee is medium to dark yellow.

Answer 5

Between having a baby and getting on birth control again your body is a little wacky. That is most likely why you are missing your period.

Most likely the test will say positive if you are pregnant. But you could always ask an obgyn

Answer 6

I know someone that was on birthcontrol and her test came back positive, but because it happen while she was on the patch she lost the baby. So to answer your question it can show up positive. And also i had by baby and a month later i got took a test and yes it was positive. they say right after you have a baby you r more fertil. and to add to it when you first start taking birthcontrol it makes you very firtil the first month. i had my first child like that

Answer 7

no it does not effect the prego test outcome, however it does effect regularity of your periods cycle. i have gone up to 4 months without a period on the pill but all women react differently. i wouldnt suggest running out and buying a prego test everytime you miss a period. may i suggest using a condom too. it may relieve some of your fears.

Answer 8

It will still come out + if you take the test when you miss your period. The pill does not mask the HCG in the urine.

Answer 9

positive
