Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I had unprotected sex with my partner a week ago. He did not ejaculate inside me. But, I had still taken an I-pill after about two to three hours of having sex. I still have not got my periods. What should I do? Am I pregnant? Should I wait for some more days? My periods were due a week ago. Please help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Yes, it is better to wait for about one week. If your pregnancy test is also negative, then there is no need to worry as you have taken precaution well in time. The medicine for postponing can also delay your periods and more dose after taking emergency contraceptive pills. So get one test done and wait and watch.
Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
So when should I take the pregnancy test? It has been eight days since the sexual intercourse.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
You can take the test tomorrow morning as also your days are already over. If there is any doubt then it can be confirmed via a blood test.
