Is White Discharge On The Second Day Of Period A Sign Of Pregnancy?

So I started my period around the 18th of April and it ended around the 22-23 of April. I had unprotected sex the 24th and took the day after pill around 11 on the 26th. So it s been one day. I have had a very small amount of white discharge. Could I be pregnant ??

Hi..
I appreciate your concern about this question. Pregnancy status can be known only after implantation of the fertilised egg in the uterus which usually occurs in 7-12 days after intercourse.Additionally, this period was considered safe to prevent pregnancy as unsafe period mainly lies between 8 to 21 days in menstrual cycle.

I have gone through many cases in my OPD come up with unprotected sexual intercourse and they are not ready for pregnancy then i would recommend them post-coital oral contraceptive pill Levonorgestrel 1.5mg ,single dose should be taken within 72 hours of unprotected sexual intercourse. If white discharge is non irritant,non offensive and non allergic its absolutely physiological and considered normal.If it is offensive,allergic and irritating then its due to some bacterial or fungal infection of vagina.
I would suggest you to consult your family Obstetric and Gynaecologist for further opinion.
