Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My partner ejaculated hours before we had unprotected sex. According to my ovulation calendar, we had sex on the day of my ovulation. If it helps, I have a 30-day cycle, and my last menstruation started six days before. I want to ask whether I can get pregnant with the pre-cum because he withdrew on time before ejaculating in me. I am afraid of what the result would be. And, I took an emergency pill that contains Ethinyl estradiol and Levonorgestrel, three days after intercourse. I know it would not affect much because it happened the day after ovulation. But I am hoping for a different approach.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Yes, pregnancy can occur with just precum as well but as you had taken I-pill within 72 hours then hopefully it would be effective and would prevent pregnancy. It does not matter if it was your ovulation day or not that you had unprotected act, but i-pill works in every circumstances. And second option which you could avail to totally eliminate the chance of pregnancy (as if you have not had taken pill within 72 hours) is to opt for coil (intrauterine device) in this cycle. It can be inserted up to 10 days after unprotected episode and can be kept as a long term contraceptive method or be removed after period gets started. It all depends on your choice. I hope it has helped you. If you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.
