Is It Safe To Have Unprotected Sex After Taking Luthera?

I had intercourse without a condom and my partner cum outside. I m on Luthera and on the day of intercourse I took my pill 6-7 hours early, (I usually take it in the late afternoon but I took it in the morning instead) and after I took the pill early I had intercourse without a condom. I m very worried as it was my first time having sex without a condom. And afterwards I found this puddle of white and sticky discharge on my underwear. Should I be worry about being pregnant? (Also I never missed any pills and I have been on Luthera for a little over a year)

Thanks for consulting. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.

you can continue with your medication. there are certain facts about pregnancy which you need to know.

a women can only get pregnant when a man ejaculates inside the women when she is in he r fertile period approximately 8th to 20th day for her period. chances are high if it is around 14th day. so the rest of the time is safe period. there is almost no chance. when the women is having regular menstruation.

for irregular menstruation it is difficult to find the fertile period. she has to use condom or oral contraceptive or emergency contraceptive post sex within 72 hours.

since you are on regular pills you need not afraid about getting pregnant.

Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.
