Withdrawal bleeding happened on 9th may but white discharge is from 21st may . So i am concerned wether its a sign of pregnancy

Answered by Dr. Deepti Verma (38 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Absolutely no chance of pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
If you have taken I pill within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse and had withdrawal bleeding after it , then there are no chances of pregnancy.
Increased white vaginal discharge can be due to hormonal changes, and it is normal to have increased vaginal and cervical discharge after taking I pill due to its hormonal effect.
There are absolutely nil chances of pregnancy .
Hope you found the answer helpful.

I had taken emergency pill on 2nd may right after the intercourse . Can i be pregnant ??

Answered by Dr. Deepti Verma (7 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Almost nil chance of pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
No, the chances of pregnancy are almost nil.
Moreover, i pill is known to delay the next expected periods by 2-3 weeks.
However, it is always better to rule out pregnancy by the urine pregnancy test.
