Patient's question:
I had sexual intercourse during my menstrual period, and the semen remained inside my body. I want to know if I need to take birth control pills to prevent pregnancy. I hope to get your answer as soon as possible.Doctor's answer:
In your case, it is generally unlikely to get pregnant even if you do not take emergency contraception. The date of your menstrual period is the key; the closer you are to this date, the safer it is. In your situation, it is usually not possible to get pregnant.It is recommended that you choose not to take emergency contraception, but if you want to completely rule out the risk of pregnancy, you can take it.
