Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I had unprotected sex with my partner without any penetration. I rubbed my penis over her vagina. I might have a little semen present in it. She usually has a periods cycle of 33 to 35 days. But her periods got delayed this month. Is she pregnant? Why is there a delay in her periods? Is there any typical food available to bring her periods on time?

Answered by Dr. Neha Rathod

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Just touching or rubbing will not cause pregnancy. So relax and do not worry. The delay occurs due to hormonal changes. It happens due to stress and strain.

Patient's Query

Thank you doctor,

I read several answers that rubbing might cause pregnancy. She was on the 16th day of her cycle, and it can also be a fertile period. Is it right to take papaya to bring her periods?

Usually touching or rubbing will not cause pregnancy. So stay relaxed and do not worry. Yes, papaya can help to bring periods.

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