Patient's question:
Doctor,I had my period on December 26th, and it's now December 31st. My usual menstrual cycle is 33-34 days. I'd like to ask, if I don't get my period for a week, could it mean I'm pregnant? But yesterday, I had sexual intercourse with my husband. If the test shows I'm pregnant, will this affect the baby? It was just once. Because I've had a miscarriage before, I'm worried it might affect my uterus. Please answer.
Also, I don't have any early pregnancy symptoms yet, everything is normal. And on December 20th, I played table tennis for a long time. I wonder if that could have an effect as well.
Doctor's answer:
Sperm ejaculation has no effect on the fetus. However, it is recommended to be cautious during sexual intercourse. This is because the early stages of pregnancy, specifically the first, second, and third months, are prone to causing miscarriage, while the later stages, the seventh, eighth, and ninth months, are prone to premature birth. In the fourth, fifth, and sixth months, sexual intercourse is possible, but it should be gentle, and it is best to have the woman on top.
