Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I had unprotected sex with my fiancee on the 27th of this month. Her period was due on the 29th. She has a yellowish-white discharge for the past few days. Does it means she is pregnant? When will she get her periods?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
This really does not mean that she is pregnant. It is possibly due to PMS (premenstrual syndrome), which is indicative of forthcoming menses. But, as the sex was unprotected and considering the possibility that she may have had a delayed ovulation, an emergency contraceptive pill is recommended.
Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
She took the pill three hours after unprotected sex. Are there any chances of pregnancy? She has nausea and a lot of white discharge. Are these symptoms of pregnancy?
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
It is good that she has taken the pill. In that case, the effects are due to the progesterone-containing pill. This can be countered by increasing the water intake to reduce the side effects. She should expect a withdrawal bleed in the next three to five days and that shall rule out pregnancy.
