I ended my period on Tuesday and was just spotting on Wednesday as a sign that my period was going to end. Today is Friday, and I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend. He didn't cum inside me and I took Emergency Contraceptives right after. Am I safe?

Hello Anonymous,

No. It was not possible to become pregnant by having sex while you were still having your period.

I had unprotected sex with my partner, but I didn't come inside her. Later we used condom. In one condom we noticed that there was leakage, but still while using condom I used to pull out while coming. All this happened on the day of her period due date I.e. 17 feb. Now her period has got delayed. Last year when we had sex first time, her period was delayed. Has she concieved?

Hello Anonymous,

Though having unprotected sex is risky, you had it on day 6 of your new menstrual cycle, which was probably too early for ovulation.

Hello Anonymous,

Even though the withdrawal method is not very reliable, you should not have been at risk for becoming pregnant because your period ended the day before, and it was too early for ovulation.

Hello Anonymous,

There is a risk if you have a very short menstrual cycle, like 22 days.

The new menstrual cycle starts with the first day of your period. If your period lasts seven days, then four days after the end of your period is day 11. With a short, 22 day cycle, that is mid cycle and time for ovulation.

Regards,
Maryann
