What Does Periods After Unprotected Sex Suggest?

Posted on Fri, 18 Sep 2015

Question: Hi, I had unprotected sex with a girl and ejaculated inside of her. She was not on any contraception and did not take any morning after pill. She has since had a normal period about 2 weeks later. Does that mean she is not pregnant?

Answered by Dr. Ramadevi Wani (21 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Yes. It means that she is not pregnant.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns today.

If she has had normal period in all probability she is

Implantation /breakthrough bleeding of pregnancy also can sometimes cause period like bleeding. However This bleeding usually is lighter than normal period.

So if you want 100% surety get a pregnancy test done.
Best wishes,
Dr Rama.

Thanks. I am really sorry to bother you. Just one last question. I should probably have mentioned that she received her period at around the time she expected to receive it, so does this confirm that it was period and not breakthrough bleeding? Thanks

Answered by Dr. Ramadevi Wani (1 hour later)

Brief Answer:
Breakthrough bleeding Also occurs around the timeof period.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome back.
It does not confirm that it was her period.
Breakthrough bleeding also occurs around the time of period only.

If you have further concerns, you can definitely write to me. I will be happy to answer.
Bedt wishes,

If she gets her period next month does that confirm she is not pregnant or could that still be breakthrough bleeding?

Answered by Dr. Ramadevi Wani (7 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Details below.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
If she has normal bleeding in the next period it almost confirms that she is not pregnant.

Rarely Breakthrough bleeding can occur in the first two months of pregnancy.

That is the reason I suggested a pregnancy test.
