Could a 13-week scan detect hidden pregnancy after anal penetration?

I had an intercourse on oct 24th which only includes anal penetration and rubbing at that region. There was no direct contact between penis and vagina. I had bleeding on Nov 8th dec 6th jan 3rd and Feb 2nd and the flow seemed to be normal. Also did a urine pregnancy test on Dec 30 showed negative results and out of my anxiety did an transabdomen ultrasound scan at a clinic on Jan 27 which is above 13 weeks and they said no pregnancy is found. But I'm still anxious and can't convince my self about no pregnancy occurred. My doubt is even if there is a cryptic pregnancy and not found in tests would it have been identified in scan when done around 13 weeks after intercourse? Can it completely rule out pregnancy even in cases of retroverted uterus. Is a transabdomen scan is reliable at 13 weeks to identify pregnancy. Please answer patiently.

It's understandable to feel anxious, but based on your ultrasound and negative pregnancy tests, the likelihood of pregnancy is very low. A transabdominal ultrasound at 13 weeks is generally reliable, and a retroverted uterus would not significantly affect detection. Bleeding can have various causes, including hormonal changes or stress. If anxiety persists, I encourage you to consult a gynecologist for further assessment and peace of mind. They can provide thorough evaluations to address your concerns.

I am a 22 year old female and I had a medical abortion 4 days ago. I took the oral pill but then vomited a very few minutes later. I inserted the rest 48 hours later and I bled. I really regret doing this and I can’t help but feel guilty. My breasts still feel sore and I’m still feeling tired. Could my baby be still alive? I really hope so. And when can I take a scan to check if the abortion failed? which I’m really hoping for.

After you have your medical abortion, it’s quite natural that you will experience breast tenderness and tiredness for a couple of days. Nausea after taking the jumpstart pill may have compromised its effectiveness but by placing the remaining dose inside a vagina, you have helped the medication. If you still feel unsure of the present status of the child, a scan in 1-2 weeks will be needed to confirm.

I did intercourse, but condom get ripped and when he about to came, he pulled it out. Am not sure if he pulled at right time, may be a little drop might went in. And 2 days after that I got first but very small period blood. And for the safe side i took unwanted72 after 60hrs of that incident and got headache.Is this a sign of pregnancy? Last period - 21 Date of intercourse - 12 Date of pills - 14 Date of bleeding - 14

You did the right thing and took the emergency contraception pill. The little period blood you had may be due to your body getting used to the pill. Blame it on the pill, or do you think it’s a sign of pregnancy? Moreover, you should know that yet another headache is the most common side effect of the emergency contraceptive pill. If in doubt, take a pregnancy test after a couple of weeks.

Hello doctor will like to know if birth control is good

Female | 20

Birth control methods are usually beneficial for those who want to prevent pregnancy or regulate their menstrual cycles. The choice of birth control depends on the individual health, lifestyle, and personal preferences.

is this medically possible that you have periods for 2 days for past 2 months and still be pregnant

Female | 22

It is scientifically possible to have short phases during the first months of pregnancy. But it is vital to seek consultation from a gynecologist and do a pregnancy test to ensure that you are indeed pregnant. I suggest that one should contact gynecologist who deals with obstetrics and gynecology for this purpose.
