Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your query, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.
1)First of all do not panic.
2)In a woman with regular cycles, day 10 to 20 of the cycle is the most fertile period of the cycle.
Your date of sex activity is on day 26 of the cycle.
But considering your history of PCOS, you need to rule out possibility of pregnancy.
3)If you have missed your periods, I will suggest getting morning’s first sample of urine tested for pregnancy.
In case of doubt blood beta HCG test and USG can be done to confirm or rule out pregnancy.
4)Even if you are pregnant, you can opt for termination with medicines safely till 9 weeks of pregnancy under expert medical supervision.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you great health.
