Can a woman be pregnant after having unprotected intercourse a day before her period?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query and understood your concern.

You got your period the next day after you had unprotected intercourse, which means there was no conception hence no pregnancy. Did you have sex after you got your periods last month? If yes, then you have to get your serum beta hCG (human chorionic gonadotropic hormone) checked to confirm your pregnancy status. If the test comes negative then you simply have a delayed period. There can be many reasons for a delayed period. Any illness, medications, hormonal imbalances, use of contraceptive pills, sudden weight gain or weight loss, increased stress levels, anxiety, and excessive strenuous workouts can all delay periods. I will suggest you follow the instructions given below.

1. If your period is delayed for more than a month, you can go for menstrual induction. You can take tablet Primolut N (Norethisterone) 10 milligrams twice daily for five days and wait for one or two weeks for the bleeding to start.
2. You can also start therapy with COCP (combined oral contraceptive pills) for the next three cycles. This will help you to regulate your menstrual cycle.
3. I will suggest you to visit your physician and get a regular health check up done and start treatment if you have any health issues.
4. Have a nutritious, balanced diet full of fresh fruits and vegetables.
5. Drink plenty of water and stay hydrated.
6. Exercise regularly and maintain a healthy weight according to your BMI (body mass index).

I hope this has helped you out.

Thanks and regards.
