Can Pregnancy Happen After Having Sex During Periods?
i had sex during initial days of periods, and most probably penis was outside the vulva, and sperm also didn't fall in vagina. Are there chances of getting pregnant? I took unwanted 72 within 48 hrs, as having periods already. I suffer from abdominal pain, shivering after taking the tablet, what precautions i should adopt? Will it affect my periods and what way?? Please, reply as soon as possible.

Hi,
Thanks for consulting us.
Sex should be avoided during periods as there is a risk of infection.
Anyway, pregnancy is rare at this time but not impossible.
Unwanted 72 may lead to stoppage of you periods or irregular heavy bleeding at a later date.
Please use a regular contraception if you are not ready for a pregnancy.
Hope you got the desired answer.
Take care.
