Patient's question:
Hello everyone, I am 27 years old, married, and I have a question I'd like to understand. It's about using a condom throughout sexual activity. I really want to know, is it possible to get pregnant in this situation? What is the chance of getting pregnant if a condom is used the entire time? If pregnancy occurs, what are the symptoms?Doctor's answer:
Hello, using a condom throughout sexual activity is almost never a cause of pregnancy. Only during the ovulation period, with normal sexual activity, can sperm successfully combine with an egg to form a fertilized egg, and the fertilized egg must implant and develop for pregnancy to occur. By using contraceptive measures, sperm cannot enter the uterine cavity to combine with a mature egg, and thus cannot form a fertilized egg, so pregnancy cannot occur. If pregnancy occurs, the first sign is usually a missed period.
