Hi Me n my wife had a sexual intercourse without protection last night . Since we have a 7-month old baby, we are not planning to have a new baby soon. My wife is not on any pills or other contraceptives. Her last period started at 02-Nov and lasted for 5 days.Her normal Menstrual cycle lasts for 30-31 days.Since we are located in UAE, we do not have any access to emergency contraceptive pills. It is banned in UAE.Is there any chance of she getting pregnant due to this?does any birth control pills will help ?  or any other alternatives?
Hello, Unprotected intercourse soon after a period is relatively safe, as ovulation usually occurs two weeks prior to the onset of the next cycle. Risk of conception is high around mid-cycle. Birth control pills used on a regular basis help and are advised if she is not feeding the baby. Emergency contraception can be availed by insertion of an IUD also and this is more advisable than the pills in view of the safety and longevity. Hope you find this information useful. Take care.
