Patient's question:
I am the child born in September who gave up breastfeeding. My period arrived on October 15th, and I had sex on the 18th. Is it likely to get pregnant this way? This time, my period came on November 25th, delayed by many days. During this period, I had lower abdominal pain for two days, and when my period arrived, I had slight lower abdominal pain. In the meantime, I used pregnancy tests that showed two dark and two faint lines. At the hospital, an ultrasound showed everything was normal. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description and making some assumptions, if your period came on the 15th, the timeframe of sexual activity on the 18th is relatively safe, and the likelihood of getting pregnant is low. After weaning, the endocrine system undergoes fluctuations, which can lead to irregular periods. Therefore, it's normal for your period to come on the 25th. What needs to be emphasized is that during this period, it's essential to use safe and effective contraception methods for sexual activity.
