Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Doctor, I need to ask you a basic question. Thing is like, I want to have sex with my girlfriend, but I am scared about getting her pregnant. Can I have sex and later use unwated 72? Or is there any other medication without prescription, like getting it in a medical store with any prescription? Please help..
Hello dear Understand your concern If you are doing in the intercourse in the safe period of cycle then no chance of pregnancy (unsafe period: 4-5 days before and after ovulation days.)
For better option you can use the condoms to prevent the pregnancy. As it also prevent the sexual transmitted disease and no hormonal side effects. But if you found tear in the condom post sex then you have to use Unwanted 72. Unwanted 72 is over the counter drug and no prescription is required. So id you do not want to condoms and then use Unwanted 72 just after finishing the sex as it is highly effective (95 % success rate) if taken with in 24 after sex. From tablet period may be delayed/earlier and withdrawal bleeding may be occur due to high progesterone in the pill. Hope this may help you Best regards Dr. Sagar
