Patient's question:
I got my period on the 22nd, and today, the 26th, it just finished in the afternoon. My boyfriend came over in the evening, and we had sex right away. After the climax, I felt a little pain in my abdomen and started bleeding again. At the time, I didn't have a condom. Now I'm very worried about getting pregnant.What kind of help do I need: Can I get pregnant right after my period ends?
Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, women with normal menstruation do not ovulate immediately after their period, so the chances of pregnancy are relatively low. However, even in women with a regular menstrual cycle, ovulation is controlled by hormones, and the secretion of hormones is highly influenced by both internal and external factors. Sometimes, changes in the environment and emotional fluctuations can lead to unstable hormone secretion, causing ovulation to occur earlier or later. This is difficult to predict, so it is also hard to say whether pregnancy will occur.
