Could Withdrawal Bleeding Indicate Safe Pregnancy After Outercourse?

Patient's Query

Hi doctor. My partner and I had only outercourse on 24th may. No intercourse. No penetration. Only dry humping with my boyfriend constantly wearing his tight boxers. Out of fear I took an ipill on 26th may (within 48 hours). I had a bleeding from 3rd june to 8th june (Light bleeding, like periods). Was it withdrawal bleeding, and if so, then am I safe from pregnancy. My last periods was on 17th May, so when may I expect my next periods, Dr.? I am really worried, I need your professional guidance and an assurance if possible, Dr.

Answered by Dr. Nisarg Patel

Let me assure you that the chances of pregnancy from outercourse with protection like tight boxers are incredibly low. The bleeding you experienced from 3rd to 8th June may likely be withdrawal bleeding from the emergency contraceptive pill you took, which is a common side effect. Given that your last period was on 17th May, your cycle might be a bit irregular this month due to the emergency pill. You can expect your next period within the next few weeks. If you don't get it by then, a simple home pregnancy test can provide further reassurance.

29 year old female, who is struggling to get pregnant. I had the Same implant for 8 years, I have genital warts. I have a lump that's painful before my periods on each side of my pelvic wall. I have irregular periods, acne and intercourse is painful, I have a dry vagina.

Female | 29

Based on your symptoms, it may be a sign of hormonal imbalances and potential disruptions due to the implantation use for a long period. In parallel, the condylomas may also affect your fertility. An alternative explanation of the origins of the lumps and pains before your periods is likely endometriosis. They must be thoroughly reviewed to lift hormones, remove genital warts, and treat the underlying causes of the pain episodes and irregular menstruation.

Why is my period almost 2 months late?

Female | 16

Periods can be missed due to pregnancy, or other medical conditions. Factors like stress and weight fluctuations can disrupt hormonal balance while certain medications or medical conditions can also affect menstrual regularity.

Please my girlfriend is having some signs and she has concluded that it's cancer but I also don't know the type of cancer. She is having a bad discharge down there, her breast is itching and she is losing her hair

Male | 23

Let her first consult a gynecologist or an oncologist, for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. The symptoms you mentioned such as a bad discharge, breast itching, and hair loss, can have various causes, and it's not possible to determine the specific type of cancer based on those symptoms alone. It's natural to feel concerned, but only a medical professional can accurately diagnose the cause of her symptoms.

I used an emergency contraception about a month and a half ago, and found my self in a situation where I need to use one again now. In February I had a miscarriage and I’m just wondering how many times I can use emergency contraception, and if it’s okay to even after having a miscarriage. I have used probably about 6 in my life. Is there a limit to how many a woman can take? Will it affect my gynecological health?

Female | 21

Emergency contraception is intended for occasional and emergency use, not as a regular form of birth control. While there is no strict limit on how many times emergency contraception can be used, it's important to understand that it is not as effective or reliable as regular contraception methods.

Repeated use of emergency pills can disrupt hormonal balance in your body and cause irregularities in your menstrual cycle. It's recommended to speak personally with a gynec about more reliable and appropriate forms of contraception that can better suit your needs and provide ongoing protection.

I haven’t had a cycle since October 28th it’s December 1st now should I take a pregnancy test?

Female | 20

Yes, it's a good IDEA to take a PREGNANCY test now. A MISSED period could mean PREGNANCY, but other factors including stress, weight changes, or medications could also be the cause.. PREGNANCY tests detect the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in URINE.. It's recommended to take the test in the morning as it's when hCG levels are highest.. If the result is negative and period doesn't come within a week, consider consulting with a HEALTHCARE provider..

Female | 24

It would be good to find a gynecologist and seek medical care if your periods are missed. They can be caused by stress, hormonal imbalances, or pregnancy. It is also vital to hold a talk with someone trusted like a counselor or adult about that experience.
