Patient's question:
After the ectopic pregnancy surgery, I had my period seven days later, and then it stopped. Then, 36 days later, I had sex with my boyfriend, but he used withdrawal and I also took emergency contraception. Can I still get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
After your incident, you took the medication promptly and also used withdrawal method, which greatly reduces the chances of pregnancy. It is recommended to use safe and effective contraceptive measures in future sexual activities and pay close attention to the natural onset of your next menstrual cycle. For severe cases of ectopic pregnancy, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for early treatment. Avoid changing medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect on the treatment outcome.
