Patient's question:
All symptoms Last menstrual period was on July 12th. During this period, on the 17th to 19th, we had sexual intercourse without taking any measures. On August 9th, we had intercourse again without any protection. Could I be pregnant? My period hasn't come yet, and I'm a bit confused about the onset time and cause.Onset time and cause: Delayed menstruation
Treatment status: None
Desired help: Could you tell me if it's possible to be pregnant? Are the test strips accurate? If so, how many days have passed since my last period? Can I start taking medication?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, as long as the male has ejaculated inside the vagina during sexual activity, regardless of the time, there is a possibility of pregnancy. This is because a woman's ovulation time can sometimes be unpredictable, and ovulation may occur even during the safe period. It is best to take emergency contraception within 72 hours after the act. The probability of pregnancy is low. After 14 days of sexual activity or if your period is delayed by 7 days, you can use a pregnancy test kit or have blood tests for the six hormones of sexuality to check if there are values higher than the normal range. If the values are significantly higher than normal, it is likely that you are pregnant. Rest more after pregnancy, avoid overexertion, and have regular follow-up checks. Wish you good health!
