Brief Answer:
Contraceptive needed if actual intercourse has taken place

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.

If the actual intercourse has taken place, by 'penetration of penis in the vagina and ejaculation inside the vagina', then there are chances of conception.

In that case, you can take emergency contraceptive pill within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.
Hope you found the answer helpful, let me know if there's any further queries.

I did not bleed but i have heard that while intercourse female bleeds and also i did not experienced much pain. I took regestrone yesterday nyt and today morning. Should i continue it or leave it and wait for periods to come? If i get my periods in 2-3 days after leaving regestrone, does this confirms dat i will not b pregnant?

Brief Answer:
Regestrone is not a contraceptive

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,

Sometimes, if the vagina and hymen are pliable, then bleeding may not occur while intercourse.
Regestrone is not a contraceptive.

If you get your periods within 5-7 days of stopping Regestrone, then there are no chances of pregnancy.
