Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I and my fiance had unprotected sex a month back but he did not ejaculate inside me. Due to confusion, I had an Ipill after two hours of intercourse. On the eighth day after taking the pill, I got a light bleeding (enough to use a pad) which lasted for three days. My last period started 40 days back and lasted for five days. I missed my next period which was supposed to be a month later. Now after that I did the urine pregnancy test in the afternoon which came negative. I just want to know is there a chance of me getting pregnant. Am I safe now? Please answer it
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Yes, if now it turns out to be negative urine pregnancy test after 20 days of intercourse than definitely, you are not pregnant. It is almost a month after intercourse and test are negative. So, you are not pregnant for sure. And yes, periods can be delayed and/or disturbed even after Ipill which is in your case. Do drink more water and wait for a period of 5 to 10 more days. Mostly, it will come. If delayed more than 10 days than do consult nearby gynecologist. You may require hormonal medicines to induce the period.

Thank you doctor,
On the internet, it is mentioned that urine pregnancy test to be done in morning. So, I feared that it has not given a false negative. Is it sure that now there is no chance of any glitch and I can take a sigh of relief? Please help me out.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
When it is very much early pregnancy then early morning sample is best. If pregnancy is positive then faint positive also should come even if with other samples than the morning. You should not have any doubt. Do the test again after five days with early morning sample and do see the test after five minutes. and if negative then it is sure that there is no pregnancy. Two tests will rule out the false negative result due to inexperienced test also. Do not worry, as per your history pregnancy is not there. One more thing ejaculation was not there.
