Patient's question:
I would like to ask, I had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend yesterday without any form of contraception (this was my first time having sex). My menstrual period is due in the next couple of days, although it has not been very regular for the past two months. However, I feel like it is coming soon now. I have some breast tenderness. Is it necessary for me to take birth control pills? If I do, which kind should I take?Follow-up question: Thank you. Then, which kind of pills should I take? I would like to buy them in advance to be prepared. Since it happened last night, can I wait and see if my period comes tomorrow before deciding whether to take the pills? Can I be certain that if my period comes, I will not be pregnant?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, the possibility of pregnancy in your situation is unlikely, so there is no need to worry too much. In addition to symptomatic treatment and contraception, the patient needs to consult experts more and maintain communication with the doctor. The patient also needs to pay attention to nursing aspects, such as a light diet and more outdoor exercise. At the same time, the patient should also pay attention to choosing a Class A hospital for diagnosis and treatment, so as to obtain good therapeutic effects.
