Patient's question:
Hello! Could you please answer the following: My girlfriend and I had sex, but I did not penetrate her hymen, and I did not enter her vagina before I ejaculated. Is there any possibility she could be pregnant? Because her period has been about 40 days late, and she usually has one every month. We are very worried, please answer! Thank you! Also, how can we test if she is really pregnant?Follow-up question 1: She has been having lower abdominal pain recently (which used to occur before her period), but this time her period hasn’t come, and she says her discharge is also not much.
Follow-up question 2: Thank you for your reply! What should I buy?
Doctor's answer:
The possibility of you being pregnant is relatively high. The date of ovulation for women is generally around 14 days before the next menstrual period. After the egg is released, it can survive for 1-2 days, while sperm can survive in the female reproductive tract for 2-3 days. The fertilization ability is usually within 24 hours after ovulation. Sperm loses the ability to combine with the egg after 2-3 days. It is recommended that you pay attention to maintaining cleanliness and hygiene in the external genital area, avoiding infections of the reproductive tract. In the future, when engaging in sexual activity, it is important to take effective contraceptive measures to prevent unintended pregnancy.
