A member asked:

I'm on birthcontrol an i have taken penicillin about 2 weeks ago an now i have some cramping an a tight feeling in my uterus am i pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe: Penicillin has nothing to do with getting pregnant; having unprotected sex may cause pregnancy, especially if you have missed a bc pill. Take a pregnancy test, and get prenatal care immediately if positive. Penicillin will pose no threat to the pregnancy, but any underlying infection may.
