Question: hello doctor, i am 35 yrs of age..my last period was 29th july and i had protected sex with my partner on the 1st of aug...we used a condom..just to be safer, i took a morning after pill within 8 hours of the act. The next day again we had sex - this time too it was with condoms...My period has been delayed by almost 5 days now...Do i stand any chance of being pregnant.?

The chances of pregnancy are very less.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing to us.

The chances of pregnancy are very less in your case.
You should wait for period for next few days.
Your period may be delayed due to-
I-Pill or anti-fungal medication which you had earlier.
So please wait and watch for period.
If it does not resume then first go for home pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy.

Please revert back to me for further query.
Hope I have answered your query if you have any further questions I will be happy to help you.
Good luck.
Regards
Dr. Richa
