Unprotected Sex, Feel Bloated, Stomach Ache, Back Pain, Pregnant
hello, just wandering, I had unprotected sex last week and really cannot take a chance of being pregnant . is there anthing I can do now? I don t know if its in my head but I do feel very strange. Only had my period finished last wednesday the 2nd May. I had the intercourse on saturday the 5th. Would it even be possible to get pregnant? I feel bloated, sick in my stomach , feel slight backpain - but mostly funny in the stomach. please advise. Would morning after pill work now if I took it a week later? Thank you

Hi,
you didn't mentioned exactly on which day of cycle you finished periods. If that was on 5th day of cycle, 5th of may will become 8th day of cycle.
normally 8th day to 20th day can be taken as the fertile period in 28 days cycle.
So, there is a possibility for pregnancy. Remember it is only possibility.
Now i pill will not work. You visit gynecologist once and undergo blood test for pregnancy which will mostly rule out your doubt.
take care
