Can Pregnancy Happen Through Withdrawal Method?

Hi, so, I had sex around the 9th of the month, I then took the plan b pill 5 days after since I didn t even think of it till that day. I m not on bc and he didn t wear a condom, he pulled out but I don t think he came in me. Since he got it all on the bed instead of putting it in me. Sorry for the to much of information there.. But, it s now the 3rd day of taking plane b and my lower stomach feels heavy, makes weird fizzing and pop noises along with weird spades that fell like pulsations. I m also have headaches. But, I haven t spotted or had any other side effects. Is this normal? I ve never taken this before and I m worried.

Hi there, I have gone through your query. I think I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

First of all do not panic.

As you might be aware that emergency contraceptive pill works best when taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex activity.
It helps to prevent unwanted pregnancy in most of the cases if taken within 72 hours.

Secondly, in a woman with regular cycle, day 10 to 20 of the cycle is the most fertile period of the cycle.
If you happen to have unprotected sex activity in this period, then you stand chance to get pregnant.
Withdrawal method is not the best possible contraceptive method, as per ejaculation fluid can contain sperms enough to cause the pregnancy.

Now , I will suggest you to wait for your expected date of menses or for withdrawal bleeding that occurs after emergency contraceptive pills.
Withdrawal bleeding after emergency contraceptive pill can be early or late and it can be scanty or heavy.
Once you get your periods or withdrawal bleeding, you need not worry about the pregnancy.

If you happen to cross your dates, then please get morning's first sample of urine tested for pregnancy. Even if you are pregnant, then you can opt for termination of pregnancy with abortion pills under medical supervision safely till 9 weeks of pregnancy.

Please get proper sex counseling done about safe and protected sex activity. This will help to prevent unwanted pregnancy and STDs .

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
