Can Taking Levonelle After Having Unprotected Sex Avoid Pregnancy?

So my boyfriend was coming to stay for a few days so I took utovlan to delay my period for the time he was staying. We had sex several times with protection, but the final time we got carried away and we had unprotected sex however he pulled out. My boyfriend doesn t think his penis reached the back of my vagina. I m worried I may be pregnant despite this, due to pre-ejaculate or having semen on our hands and the entering my vagina. Also after having stopped taking Utovlan for 2 days and not starting my period yet I decided to take Levonelle the day after we had unprotected sex. However I m unsure now whether I should still be expecting a period within the next few days or if I should expect it when my usual menstrual cycle takes place. If I don t have my period within the next day or two as I should do with Utolvan does that mean I m pregnant? Or is it that Levonelle has stopped my ovaries from releasing eggs and so I wont have a period until my usual menstrual cycle?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. As you took Utolvan, your menstrual cycle may be irregular for a while. This is not indicative of pregnancy. If you do not get your period when it is expected, take a home urine pregnancy test, better if taken 2 to 3 times with a day's gap between each test just to be safe. But in my opinion, the delay and/or irregularity is due to utolvan and levonelle.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Best wishes,
Dr. Shoaib Khan
