Can someone be pregnant with unprotected sexual contact even on a safe day?

Question

Hello doctor,

I had unprotected intercourse with my girlfriend on the safest day possible, ensuring no pregnancy was imminent. I also gave her an Unwanted 72 within 24 hours. She last had her period two months ago and has not had one since. Is this an undesirable side effect, or is she pregnant? Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

Unwanted 72 is a high dose of Progesterone hormone. The same hormone is produced in your body in the second half of the period after ovulation. This pill will suddenly increase the thickness of the inner lining of the uterus, making it unfavorable for a possible pregnancy to implant. As it is a single dose, it has no strength to stand on, so it falls off, and you get your period or bleeding from the increased thickness within ten days of taking the pill. This bleeding will be thick, fleshy pieces, dark red or brown, with slight lower abdominal pain till the bleeding is reduced. She has taken the pill very early in the periods. There was no need to take it, as the egg was unavailable. But the drug is a high dose of the hormone. It has disturbed chiefly her hormonal balance and led to periods of irregularity. Now you can first have a home urine pregnancy test.

I hope I have answered your question.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards.
