Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking I Pill After An Intercourse?
Hello doctor i and my fiance had sex on 3rd of June with protection later she took a ipill within 7 hrs of sex. She saw some blood on 10th june which continued for 5 days and then stopped. Now her regular period date is 26th of every month and today is 29th and she still has not got her period. Are there chances of pregnancy? Thank you in advance
Emergency contraception is normally very effective in preventing pregnancy though not as effective as the regular use of birth control. It can cause changes in the menstrual cycle in terms of the timing and the intensity of the period.
It is possible that this the cause of the period delay.
She can consider a pregnancy test to see if she has conceived if her period does not come by a certain time. These are accurate from day 11 to 14 after conception.
I hope this helps
