Brief Answer:
You are less likely to be pregnant.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.

You did not mention if you have regular menstrual cycles and when is your next natural period expected.

The pain in the abdomen and the spotting observed after consuming the emergency pill are the side effects. Since you have taken the pill within the stipulated time interval after the sexual intercourse, you are well protected.

Your chances of being pregnant are almost nil. The white discharge could be part of the natural phenomenon. Some amount of white discharge is always present during the reproductive period of life.

Hope your query has been clarified. Please feel free to contact for further information. I will be happy to help.

regards,
Shanti.V.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing back.

You did have the intercourse during the fertile period, but your pill offers 90% protection as you took it within the 72-hour window. Your next natural cycle can be delayed by a week or two since the pill contains high dose of progesterone.

Please see a specialist if you become overdue by ten days for further management. Please remember that emergency pills should be used only once or twice a year. Please opt for regular contraception if you do not wish to conceive now.

Hope this helps. Please get back if you need any more clarifications. I will be glad to help.

regards,

Since the probability is approximately nil.
Can late periods can be seen as a red flag ?
Cause I am feeling fatigued these days

Brief Answer:
You can get the serum beta-hCG values checked to clarify.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing again.

As I mentioned, delayed periods are a common occurrence after taking the pill. Fatigue is not a specific symptom of pregnancy and can have several causes.

You can get the estimation of the serum beta-hCG titres now to clarify for sure since they test positive one week after ovulation at the earliest should pregnancy occur.

This should clear all your fears. Hope this helps.

Please let me know if I can assist you further.

regards,
Shanti.V.
