hi Doctor! my period is irregular, 42 cycle. Had unprotected sex March 4 and I took nordette as ecp after 104 hours but still no bleeding until now and my last period starts feb 14. I was so scared to get pregnant because I don t wanted to have unhealthy baby. I was confined in the Hospital Feb 18 because of diarrhea and vomiting, so I ve been taking antibiotics for 1week and pantaloc for 1week. Last week of Feb had Amoebiasis so i took another antibiotics and sometimes has to take Buscopan. And just 2nd week of march I had a bad cough and raspy voice and since I am a call center agent I need to take medicines again. I ve been taking a lot of medicines and that is why I don t want to get pregnant and end up taking nordette. Do you think I am pregnant? and is it safe for my baby just incase I am pregnant?
Hello, Thanks for letting us know your health concern. It is very unfortunate that you had to fall ill so many times in a month. However, it is difficult to predict ovulation as you have irregular cycles. Since the intake of emergency contraceptive pill was outside the stipulated time interval of 72 hours, efficacy is very much limited. So, in the current scenario, the best way out to confirm/exclude pregnancy is to get an estimation of the serum beta-ChatDoctor titles followed by a trans-vaginal sonogram. Further management can be planned accordingly. Take care.
