What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy With Pull Out Method?
Question: My girlfriend got her last period April 15 and now she is 7 and a half weeks pregnant....We broke up and she had sex with her ex boyfriend on May 6th...I still was having sex with her the whole time since her last period using the pull out method...My question is who is more likely being the father?
Brief Answer:
you would most likely be father
Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If she is 7 1/2 weeks pregnant then she would have conceived sometime in April.
If she was only intimate with you in this time period then you are more likely to be the father.
If she had conceived on May 6th, she would only be 4 to 5 weeks pregnant at this time.
Though the pull out method can be effective, in some cases a small semen is ejaculated into the vaginal area.
The DNA test would provide conclusive information.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions

Im still worried though because only reason she is 7 and a half weeks pregnant is because they use the time when she started her last period. .When do women ovulate would she still been ovulating may the 6th...im so worried I want it to be mine its driving me crazy not knowing
Brief Answer:
an ultrasound would help
Detailed Answer:
HI
Yes, they normally date from the onset of the last normal menstrual period but her doctor will likely suggest an ultrasound which would provide more accurate dating. This can be done at this stage.
An ultrasound is normally done early for dating in many women. If the ultrasound confirms the menstrual cycle dating then the baby is likely yours.
The time women ovulate is not exact but it is generally around 10 to 16 days after the onset of the last menstruation.

If u had to guess who would u say the father was and why
Brief Answer:
need period of gestation
Detailed Answer:
Hi
If the dates are correct then you are likely the father because 7 1/2 weeks would put conception in April. Knowing the exact period of gestational (how old the fetus is at the moment) is the key.
An ultrasound would help to clear up the issue.
It would also depend on whether another contraceptive method was used with her ex. If he used barrier protection (condom) then it is unlikely that any conception would have occurred.
