Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 20 years old. I have not got my periods this month. My last period was on the third of last month. I usually have a cycle of 32 days. Still, I did not get my periods, and I am worried because my boyfriend touched his penis near my vagina. Am I pregnant? Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Just touching the penis near the vagina is unlikely to result in pregnancy unless there is a discharge that contains sperms. There are many causes of delayed periods apart from pregnancy like stress, anxiety, thyroid dysfunction, increased prolactin level, obesity, certain medications, and most important PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome). In your case, you need to do a urine test to exclude pregnancy. If pregnancy is excluded then wait for your period till 14 days beyond your expected periods date. If periods do not occur by then you will require some investigations to find out the cause.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
