Hello,

As you might be aware that in a woman with regular cycle, day 10 to 20 of the cycle is the most fertile period of the cycle. In your case, if you happened to have unprotected sex activity in this period, then you stand chance to get pregnant.

Usually, pregnancy duration or age of pregnancy in weeks is calculated from the first day of last menstrual period. So, you can calculate the weeks from August 12th, and that will help to know about gestational age in weeks. This can be confirmed by Ultrasonography (USG).

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

Regards,
Dr. Purushottam Neurgaonkar
