Patient's question:
Last night, I had sex with him, but he didn't use protection. I'm very scared I might get pregnant because I don't want a child yet. How many days does it take for an embryo to form?Doctor's answer:
If it is during the ovulation period, there is a possibility of pregnancy. If it is during the safe period, the chances of pregnancy are relatively low. Generally, after sexual intercourse, if sperm and egg combine, it takes about a week for them to return to the uterus. If you want to see if there is a gestational sac, it is usually around two weeks after the missed period that it can be observed. If you are pregnant and do not plan to keep the baby, you can have an abortion between the sixth and tenth weeks of pregnancy.
