As a doctor's wife, I can tell you that antibiotics don't alter hCG levels, which is what the test detects. So they won't cause a false negative. If you're sick and taking meds, just make sure your doctor knows you might be pregnant.
No, antibiotics do not cause false negatives. The test only looks for the hCG hormone, which antibiotics don't interfere with. If your period is late, just test again in a couple of days.
I know how stressful it is to doubt your test results, I used to drive myself crazy overthinking this! But don't worry, antibiotics won't interfere with the hCG hormone. Take a deep breath and try testing again after a day or two.
Actually, antibiotics won't change your pregnancy test results because they don't affect the hCG hormone. When I was dealing with gestational diabetes, I learned that only specific fertility medications containing hCG can affect tests. Just focus on eating healthy while you wait to retest.
