Patient's question:
My best friend messaged me on WeChat early this morning, saying that her boyfriend suddenly came from out of town yesterday and they had sex without preparing, forgetting about breastfeeding. Now she's very worried. If she really is pregnant, what should she do? I tried to comfort her and see if there are any ways to correct it. What should you do if you forget to breastfeed?Doctor's answer:
Hello! If you have sexual intercourse without taking any contraceptive measures, it is highly likely to result in pregnancy. Currently, you can still take emergency contraception pills within 72 hours after intercourse. Although it doesn't guarantee 100% breastfeeding effectiveness, it can still prevent some potential unintended pregnancies. If your next menstrual period is delayed by more than 10 days, it is advisable to consider the possibility of pregnancy. Actively participate in physical exercise, regulate your physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene.
