Hello doctor,
I am a 21-year-old female. I had sex two days back. We used a condom before penetration. However, I am worried about getting pregnant because I read online that getting pregnant by precum is also there. Should I take an I-pill to be safe or not?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
For getting pregnant, the sperms have to be ejaculated inside the vagina of the female. The sperm has to travel to the egg, fertilize it, and then fertilize the egg to get implanted in the uterus.
I am not clear about your precum detail as you have not mentioned whether your partner entered without proper condom inside your vagina. If yes, then indeed, precum could have been there, and it can lead to pregnancy. However, some estimation of pregnancy can be done based upon the last menstrual period, ovulation, etc. If you can share the details, I will be able to help you better so if you do not want to take any chance, take an emergency contraceptive pill and take as per dosage guidelines.
However, most of the emergency contraceptive pill are hormone-based. They have this known side effect of delaying periods and spotting or light bleeding before your period.
Thank you doctor,
No, he did not enter without any condom, but we used condoms just before penetration. I have been reading up online on how genital to genital contact or precum, pregnancy can also happen if there are sperms present on the tip or something along those lines. My last periods happened on the 1st of this month.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Yes, you are right but that precum outside genitals can also cause pregnancy but that kind of pregnancy is very rare, something like one in thousand. If there was no penetration and based upon your last menstrual period there is very less chance or rather no chance of pregnancy. So do not worry. However, as I can see your periods are also slightly irregular. I am writing some tips for that below.
As far as pregnancy is concerned, if you are stressed out and will remain tensed for next month, I reiterate that please take an emergency contraceptive pill. It will make the chances 0 even is there is least probability also.
Thank you doctor,
There was penetration, but he used a condom before penetrating. I am sorry if this seems a bit repetitive, but it was my first time, and I do not want to take any chances. Also, is taking an i-pill safe for me?
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Since he did not penetrate inside you, there is no chance of pregnancy. As I told you, since it is your first time and you are so tense, I am sure you will remain tense until your next period. So pls take i-pill.
I pill safe as long as a female uses it as an emergency contraceptive pill and not as a regular birth control pill. Also, i-pill is a hormone-based pill, leading to delay in certain females and light bleeding or spotting prior to periods in certain females.
Thank you doctor,
I have asked the medical stores near my home and they do not seem to have i-pills stocked up. Ordering online would take a few days to reach and then the point of taking it would become moot. Can you please tell me how to calculate my ovulation days based on my menstrual cycle and also after how many days after sex, implantation occurs?
Hello,
Welcome to back to icliniq.com.
Ovulation usually occurs around 14 days prior to your periods. For example, if your period date is 28th of previous month then ovulation is around 14th of next month. Other method to know about unsafe period is shortest cycle length minus 18 days is first unsafe period. Longest cycle length minus 10 days is the last unsafe period.
Thank you doctor,
So does not that mean I had sex in an unsafe period? He did penetrate, but we did use a condom.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
You just entered the unsafe period, but you need to get so tense only if you have had unprotected intercourse. Even unprotected intercourse in the middle of the unsafe period can also not necessarily lead to pregnancy. Since you have had protected intercourse and there is no penetration, so I think you need not worry.
