Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

My fiance and I are indulged in sexual intercourse with contraceptive and immediately took an i-pill (morning after pill). After 5 days she was bleeding and having little cramps for 3 days. Now she her periods delayed by 17 days and urine test are saying negative. Shall we go for a blood test? If yes then what is the name of the test? Can there be some other complication?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

  • The chances of pregnancy are very less in your case, but no method is 100% effective, because you had protected intercourse and had I-pill too.
  • You should consult a gynecologist and get your blood test (beta hCG level) done and get your ultrasonography test done to rule out why your period is delayed.
  • If your pregnancy test is negative then go for withdrawal bleeding.

For further information consult an obstetrician and gynaecologist online.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

  • Your beta hCG shows negative result for pregnancy that means you are not pregnant.
  • You can take withdrawal bleeding medication directly or you can go for ultrasonography test for more confirmation.

For further information consult an obstetrician and gynaecologist online.
