Life is full of...: If 4 pregnancy tests were "positive", the only way they could be wrong are reasons such as: a person is not reading the test the right way, there is something defective in that batch of tests, the woman was pregnant briefly but miscarried really early and is no longer pregnant, she has some cyst or tumor that is making HCG, etc... Life is full of surprises, so a doctor should check this out.

Pregnancy: Over the counter pregnancy tests are very sensitive, but a blood test is even more so - I recommend a quantitative HCG to determine how many weeks pregnant you are.If you have taken BCPs as prescribed, it is unlikely that you are pregnant. You should be evaluated to rule out a tubal (ectopic) pregnancy. Antibiotics do not cause false negative pregnancy tests.
