Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My girlfriend and I had sexual intercourse before her ovulation without any protection, and I also pulled out. We did the act on two separate days, and she took an emergency pill right after that. After her ovulation, we had sex again, and this time also, we did it without protection, and I pulled out. This time she did not take the pill. Is there any danger for us?

Answered by Dr. Richa Agarwal

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thanks for trusting us for your health care. I have gone through your history and understand your concern.

As you had unprotected sex, I suggest,

  • I-pill (Levonorgestrel) 1.5 mg as early as possible (maximum within 72 hours of intercourse).

Only one tablet is required in your case. Menstrual irregularities are the side effects of the pill.

I hope you found the answer helpful. Feel free to ask for more information.

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