I have not taken pill after having sex. Is it possible for me to become pregnant?

Question

Hi doctor,

I had sex on the beginning of this month and both times my boyfriend did not pull out. I took a action pill after two days, but within an hour and a half I threw up. I had eaten food before taking the pill. After I threw up , I did not take another pill. According to my calendar , I ovulated during the mid of this month. I just want to know if its possible that I can be pregnant. My period is due on the end of this month. I am nervous. I am uncertain whether the pill got absorbed or not because I threw up. It has been exactly 7 days since we had sex so will it be too early to take a test?

Hi,

Welcome to iCliniq.com

I fully understand your concern and will surely help you.

For getting pregnant the sperms have to be ejaculated inside the vagina of the female. These sperms are then required to fertilise an egg which then gets implanted in uterus of the female. In your case although you have taken the pill after two days of having sex, but your first intercourse was on the beginning of this month. The effectiveness of the pill reduces in accordance to the time it is taken post intercourse. As you threw up post taking the pill after one and a half hour there is a possibility of pregnancy. My request is please take a urine pregnancy test with first urine of the day for accurate result. Do not drink too much fluid prior to your test. Adhere to all guidelines written on package of pregnancy test kit. Based on the outcome of the pregnancy test we can decide upon further management of your menstrual health or pregnancy. Do not worry I am always there for you. Feel free to ask any questions or to share any additional information. God bless.
