Patient's question:
I had sex with my husband a few days ago, using the withdrawal method for contraception. However, my period has been delayed by a week, and it's usually very regular. We already have two children, so we don't plan to have any more, and I'm very worried about getting pregnant again.What kind of help do I need: What is the chance of getting pregnant with the withdrawal method?
Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Based on your situation, if intercourse occurs during the ovulation period, the possibility of conception cannot be ruled out. Let's set aside whether a small amount of semen flows into the vagina. During sexual activity, men secrete prostatic fluid, which is a component of semen. From a physiological perspective, pure prostatic fluid does not contain sperm. However, during sexual intercourse, a small amount of it may mix in. Therefore, prostatic fluid also has a chance to cause pregnancy, but the chance is very low.
