We didn t use protection can I still get pregnant?
Patient: Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here... Hi, my question is that I alway have my period rite but this month When I got my period for 3days I was spotting ant then for 5days I was bleeding and then I had sex with my husband but We didn t use protection can I still get pregnant? Doctor: Hallow Dear,The 3 days spotting you had was premenstrual spotting. The menstruation is to be counted from the day you has normal bleeding for 5 days. If immediately after that you had intercourse with your husband, there is most remote possibility (practically no possibility) of pregnancy. The egg gets released 14 days prior to the next expected menstruation. The egg has life of 24 hours while the sperms are active for 72 hours. Therefore a period of about a week around the day of egg release is the Fertile Window. Your intercourse was far away from this period. So the chances of pregnancy are almost nil. Hope this helps you,Dr. Nishikant Shrotri
