Can I Get Pregnant Inspite Of Having Unprotected Sex?

default
Posted on Sat, 3 May 2014
Question: I'm normally on a 25 day cycle, occasionally its off by 1 day. My last period was on March 19th and I was supposed to start my period this past Sunday 4/13/2014. I track my cycle and I may have had unprotected sex the day before I ovulate. Am I pregnant or just getting a late period? Also I took a test this morning, it says negative.

Brief Answer: Chances are there. Detailed Answer: Dear Friend. Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I have read your query in detail. I understand your concern. If you had sex on around 14th day of your cycle, then you are at risk of getting pregnant. Since you have missed your periods and you were suppose to have your period on 13th, you are 4 days over to it. Urine pregnancy test usually gets positive after 10 days of missing the periods. So, you can wait and watch, if you don't get your periods for 1 week more, repeat the test again. This is my best advice for you with the available details, if you have any further query, please ask us. Stay Healthy
