How To Avoid Unwanted Pregnancy After Unprotected Sex

Me n my wife had sex on 1 dec ( her regular periods date is 29 and 1st dec her 4th day), for one week we had sex. but now she has not got her period. we are suspecting that it may be pregnancy, we are having a one year old baby. My parents may scold us as they suggested us to wait for 2 years but we have not taken any protection before sex.
Do suggest me any medicine without side effects.

Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

First your wife need confirmation of pregnancy. There are chances of pregnancy according to days mentioned by you.
Normally ovulation occurs on 14th day counting from 1st day of last period and sperms can be viable for 3-4 days in female genital tract so there are chances of pregnancy.
She should do urine pregnancy test.
However ultrasound of pelvis is the investigation of choice for confirmation of pregnancy.
Further planning can be done after pregnancy confirmation.

Take Care
