Dont worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I read your query and I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1) The pregnancy chances are very less.

2) You can be relaxed and wait for the periods to occur.

3) If she misses her periods by one week, do a pregnancy test.

Let me know if you have anymore questions.
