Then it would be wise to get off the internet and go to your doctors office.

I would retest with a pink dye test to make sure. Also I got pregnant the one cycle I mixed antibiotics with birth control.

I am sure your mother will be mad and you would be too if your daughter was in your situation. No one wants to see their child struggle and it's just difficult. Make the doctor's appointment and see what's going on/get the pregnancy confirmed. If you are pregnant, it's important to get the prenatal care and all of that. Also, after this baby, I would highly recommend going for a more long term form of birth control like an IUD, the implant, or the depo shot.

Make a doctor's appointment for a blood test to check your hcg levels. A faint positive is still a positive, as penswriter said. It'd be best to see the doctor so you can confirm it and get prenatal care. Symptoms really are not reliable in figuring out if you are pregnant, so you need to see your doctor about this.

I've been extremely tired also and I work on skates but for the past couple weeks my feet have been hurting and I've been having increased vaginal secretions but no sign of my period

I'd call the ob and go in for a blood test. A positive, even a faint one, is still a positive. So, sounds like you're pregnant.

When you use anti-biotics while on the pill, it's basically like not being on the pill at all because the anti-biotics counteract the pill making them not work. If a person is having unprotected sex, which is basically what a person would be doing if taking anti-biotics while on the pill, then they have a high chance for getting pregnant. Any time a person is on anti-biotics and on the pill, they need to use condoms during that time to prevent pregnancy. Not everyone would get pregnant, but there is a high chance for it to happen.
