Hi,

Although this is not very likely, it is, however, possible that pregnancy occurs so you had one risky intercourse.

And if this happened during your ovulation period it is possible that pregnancy occurs but considering your description of it, this risk is minor.

To be sure you should do pregnancy test which can be done when period is missed or 8 days after the targeted intercourse so at this point it would be accurate enough to detect possible pregnancy.

A standard urine test would be enough for it since this is almost 99% accurate.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
