Can pregnancy occur during intercourse with withdrawal bleeding?

Patient's question:

I am a 55-year-old woman and don't know why I suddenly got sick. I also feel uncomfortable. Please ask: Can pregnancy occur during intercourse with withdrawal bleeding?

Doctor's answer:

This withdrawal bleeding is not true menstruation, and ovulation is relatively chaotic at this time. Therefore, if there is sexual activity without protection after withdrawal bleeding, there is still a possibility of pregnancy. It is recommended to take timely contraceptive measures. Emergency contraception pills are generally recommended to be taken only once or twice a month, and no more than three times a year.
During treatment, patients need to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular schedule, participate in physical exercise, and regulate their physical and mental health. It is also important to maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
