My question is that, is there a chance which these tablets has made her pregnancy test positive? I mean do they have anything to do with b- HCG hormone?? She has used a home pregnancy test . Thanks

hello,
Naturally there is highest possibility of pregnancy,if unprotected sexual intercourse is done with healthy woman around ovulation time in regular period.
Taking psychiatric medicine may cause hormonal imbalance/hamper ovulation sometimes to interrupt pregnancy but it varies woman to woman. It also reduces the effectiveness of OCP/other pill.
So better to confirm pregnancy with blood test for B-hcg after 1 wk of missed due date.
Practice safe sex by using safe period/Condom/Em Pill etc to avoid unwanted pregnancy.
Be well.
