Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your case, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.
First of all do not panic.
If your cycles are regular, fertile period is between day 10 to 18.
So sex on day before start of menses will not cause you pregnancy.
Urine pregnancy test comes positive within 5 days of missing your period.
Last word of caution---- please encourage your partner to use condom; this will not only prevent unwanted pregnancy but also will protect both of you from STDs
I hope my answer helps you..
Thanks.
