Patient's question:
In the morning, I just finished my period, and we had sex at night. Will I get pregnant? Also, is it harmful to my body at this time? I still bled after finishing.Doctor's answer:
It should be absolutely impossible to get pregnant. There are 4 days of safe period after the menstrual period ends, but sperm can survive in the body for up to 6 days. However, the chance of conception is higher in the first 4 days, making intercourse relatively safe. But if you do not want to get pregnant, you should take precautions before intercourse for the following days. It is best not to take birth control pills afterward, as they can cause significant interference to the body.After intercourse, if there is bleeding (skin tearing) and the menstrual period has not completely ended, the uterus contracts and causes further tearing. In this case, it is highly unlikely to get pregnant, but there is a risk of infection and inflammation.
