Question : Hi.
I had an intercourse on the last day (5th day) of my period on 31st of last month. A little ejaculation was outside. Took an ipill within 12 hours. Had a bleeding which lasted for a day after a week of taking the pill. I have a regular 28 day cycle and was expecting my period during this time of January. But it seems to be delayed. Is it a serious concern to worry about?

Hello,
Thanks for the query to HCM,
There is no apparent need to worry regarding pregnancy as you had sex during her safe period , on day 5 of her cycle when ovulation would not have taken place, hence no chance of pregnancy. Also as she took an ipill a well to be doubly protected and she had her withdrawal bleed after 7 days as expected , so the next menses shall only be a month later , counting from the day of the withdrawal bleed post ipill intake as the date of teh withdrawal bleed shall become her fresh LMP date now.

Okay.
So should I now be expecting the next cycle date with respect to withdrawal bleeding date?
