Is Emergency Contraception Necessary After Unprotected Sex on 3rd Day of Period?

Patient's Query

I have unprotected sex on 3rd day of period but he finished outside. Should i buy emergency contraception?

Answered by Dr. Himali Patel

Certainly, you should take the pill of emergency birth control maximum in 72 hours since an unprotected sex to avoid unwanted pregnancy. I recommend that you consult a gynecologist for more directions and to get on various procedures.

I am pregnant in 9 weeks. At my last scan, they said I have a possible hematoma with dimmensions 8/5 mm. They said it is small and nothing to worry about. Also I had no bleeding or brown discharge. So what should I do?

Female | 20

If your doctor has told you that the hematoma is small and not a cause for concern, then it is likely that they have assessed the situation carefully and do not see any immediate risks to your pregnancy.

I was prescribed primulot n to delay my period . The dosage was thrice a day . Instead of taking it every 8 hours , I mistakenly took it every 6 hours . Causing a 12 hour gap . I may have a slight spotting . Can I change my timings and switch to 8 hours

Female | 34

Don’t worry if your Primulot N dose timing was a little off. If you took it every 6 hours rather than 8, you might experience some slight spotting. The reason for this is that your hormone levels change. To solve the problem, take your medicine after every 8 hours as directed. This adjustment will help to normalize your hormone levels and prevent any bleeding.

Why do I feel pregnant but an ultrasound shows no baby and I've taken 2 pregnancy tests they both come out negative, I am sure I feel like there's something in my tummy?

Female | 20

If you have taken multiple home pregnancy tests and blood tests showing negative results then there's no chance for pregnancy. Feeling symptoms similar to pregnancy can have various causes.
