Does Levonorgestrel Work Pre-Ovulation After Intercrural Sex?

Is levenogestrel effective 3 days before expected ovulation day when taken within 24 hours of intercrural sex

1 Answer

Answered on 8th Jan '25

Levonorgestrel is a form of emergency contraception that works best when taken soon after unprotected intercourse. Taking it within 24 hours can be effective in preventing pregnancy, although its performance may decrease close to the ovulation period. Symptoms after taking it may include temporary nausea, lighter menstrual flow, or fatigue. If you have any concerns about your cycle or are considering regular contraception options, I encourage you to consult a gynecologist. They can offer personalized advice tailored to your health needs and ensure you feel supported throughout this process.

I have irregular periods. My last period was on Sept 18th. I had unprotected sex on Nov 2nd. I took cycloreg tablets for periods. Will there be any chance of pregnancy?

Female | 25

Irregular periods can affect your chances of becoming pregnant and make it harder to track your fertile days. Since your last period was on September 18 and you had unprotected sex on November 2, pregnancy is a possibility. Common pregnancy symptoms include missed periods, nausea, and fatigue. Regular use of Cycloreg can also delay your cycle. To be certain, taking a pregnancy test is essential.

I recently took my gardasil vaccine (HPV) on 30 march 2024 after which my periods got delayed for over 10-15 days then I got my periods again on 29 april after which I hvnt got my periods until now and today is 13 june i took the 2nd dose of gardasil on 10 june 2024 is the vaccine affecting me?

Female | 20

Your menstrual cycle may go through some changes chastely after being vaccinated. The vaccine is known to be able to modify the menstrual cycle at times, but it's no cause for anxiety. Over time, your periods will return to when they were on their own. Meanwhile, always be healthy, be hydrated, and get enough sleep.

I am 20 year old .. I have unprotected sex with my partner..I have taken unwanted 72 within 24 hrs.. i had bleeding after 7 days and it was heavy for first day.. bleeding lasts for 3 days.. Is there is any chance of pregnancy???? Please tell me

Female | 20

Taking an emergency contraceptive pill within 24 hours of unprotected sex can greatly reduce the chance of pregnancy, but it is not 100% effective. So how to know if unwanted 72 has worked? It's the bleeding you experienced which is a common side effect of the pill and is a sign that the pill is working to prevent pregnancy. If you are still concerned, you can take a home pregnancy test to confirm.

You may need to go and visit a gynecologist for an examination and check. The expert can diagnose the root cause and suggest suitable medication for each person depending on his or her specific condition.
