Hello doctor, I had unprotected sex during the last days of my periods when the bleeding had stopped. After a day, I started bleeding again in spots (not a lot). I have not taken a contraceptive pill yet. I am confused if I should take a pill or not. If I do not take a pill tomorrow, will it lead to pregnancy? Is there any chance of pregnancy or is it nothing to worry about?
Hi. It is normally happening as in the last third or fourth days the bleeding stops and after 12 hours, some spotting again is observed. It is usual. In case of activity, some pressure also locally develops and it can show spotting if residual is there and that still had to come in form of spotting in recent cycle 's end or in form of brown blood in the start of coming or next cycle. If you have been having irregular cycles and had intermenstrual or postcoital spotting previously then better to take I-pill for your satisfaction as you have not mentioned the complete history. In the case of cervical, endometrial polyp, any cervical pathology or endometriosis can have post-coital bleed, but for that also you have not given history.
