Patient's question:
Living with my boyfriend, we're in a sweet phase, and I tend to be more passionate. I don't want to use condoms either. If we get pregnant, we'll get married. If not, we'll keep dating for another two years. The 30th is usually when I get my period, so it should be safe now. What kind of help do I need: What days before my period are safe?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: The safe period generally refers to the 7 days before the onset of menstruation and the 8 days after it ends. Other days are considered the risky period, during which pregnancy is possible. Intercourse during the safe period usually does not lead to pregnancy. For women with regular menstrual cycles, the day of ovulation is typically 14 days before the next menstrual period. The 5 days before and 4 days after ovulation, including the day of ovulation itself, make up a 10-day ovulation period. Women with irregular menstrual cycles cannot calculate their ovulation period. However, they can determine it through observing cervical mucus, measuring basal body temperature, using ovulation test strips, or undergoing ovulation monitoring via ultrasound.
