General & Family Physician,  's  Response
HI,
I understand your concern.
Yes, delayed periods is first sign of pregnancy. Still it needs to be confirmed by UPT after 8 days delay in periods.
In your wife's case.. she had sex on 9th day of her menses. ant unprotected sex around ovulation day is likely to result in pregnancy & Ovulation is 14 days prior to expected day of menses ( it' s 14th day in case of 28 days cycle. So pregnancy can be possible if your wife has regular & shorter cycles OR irregular cycles.
The medicines she had started from 3rd December if hormonal medicne,
may delay periods .
SO she has to wait for menses & go for UPT if it's delayed, IF pregnancy is diagnosed she will get a gynecologist's guidance for medical termination of pregnancy.
Thanks.
Thanks.
