Had Unprotected Sex After Stopping Birth Control Pills. Had Mucus Like Discharge. Sign Of Ovulation?
Hi there,
I am 22 and healthy. I have been with my boyfriend for almost four years. I finished my last pack of apri birth control pills on October 26th and had my "fake" period on the 29th of October to the 3rd of November. We had unprotected sex on the 6th 8th 10th 11th and 12th by using the pull out method. On Thursday night we had unprotected sex and he finished halfway inside of me. Now, Friday the 15th I went to the washroom and I had clear, stretchy discharge with two drops of blood the size of a tip of a ball point pen. I looked it up, and it seems as though this mucous symbolizes ovulation. That being said. What do you think my chances are of being pregnant this month?

Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Your chances of being pregnant this month are quite high, as you have been regularly having unprotected sex.
Even without ejaculation inside the vagina, precum itself can potentially lead to a pregnancy.
The dates tally with the blood tinged mucous being that of ovulatory spotting.
It could be most probably that only.
If you wish to have a pregnancy, stay sexually active from today onwards.
If you do not, then use a barrier for the rest of the cycle, though, that in no way ensures that you havent already conceived.
Take care.
