General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Withdrawal method of contraception does not ensure protection against pregnancy as the failure rate seems to be much higher than other modes of contraception.
If her periods are delayed by more than a week, kindly take a urine pregnancy test to know the status.
If it is positive, do not use any other means to terminate it as it could put your partner with tremendous health risk. Kindly consult Gynecologist for further evaluation and management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
