Question: I am 47 & my wife is 41 . We had sex after 23th day of her mensus . She didn't get her next cycle till 36 days .
Brief Answer:
Watchful wait advised for next 4 days.
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I understand your concern.
Its unlikely to turn pregnant with sex on day 23.
In many cases the cycle can be delayed up to 40 days.
This should not be a concern.
I advise you to wait and watch for another 4-5 days.
Periods will resume soon.
Your wife needs a uterine scan only if she does not have her period within 7 days from now.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
