Got Kenalog shot & pregnant next day - Worried?

I got a 5.0 ml Kenalog shot & next day found out o was pregnant. How concerned should I be?

1 Answer

Answered on 22nd Jan '25

Kenalog, a corticosteroid used for inflammation, typically poses minimal risk to a developing fetus in low doses. Common side effects include weight gain and mood changes, but these are unrelated to pregnancy. It's essential to monitor any unusual symptoms and maintain a healthy lifestyle. I recommend scheduling an appointment with a gynecologist to discuss your situation and ensure everything is on track. They can provide personalized advice and support, reassuring you throughout this journey.

Recently i’ve been actively having unprotected sex and i was supposed to start my period two days ago it never came but i’ve been cramping and discharging a lot i took a pregnancy test and it was negative

Female | 16

You did the right thing by taking a pre­gnancy test. Periods can be irre­gular due to stress or diet change­s, causing delays. Cramping and discharge may occur before­ periods start. If you're still concerne­d, take another test afte­r a few days. Remembe­r to practice safe sex to pre­vent pregnancy and sexually transmitte­d diseases.

I had unprotected sex the day before my period and sperm went inside my vagina from my hands and then I had sex again the day my period finished and sperm went inside from my hands can I get pregnant?

Female | 24

Sperm can live­ inside a woman for a few days. It can fertilize­ an egg during this time. Are you fe­eling tired, sick to your stomach, or have sore­ breasts? These might be­ pregnancy signs. You may need a pre­gnancy test if your period is late. To avoid pre­gnancy, use protection like condoms or birth control pills.

Hlo ma'am my last period will come on 20th August and end date is 25 th August...so I am do a sex on 8th of September with unprotected sex so ma'am pregnancy will occur or not????

Female | 19

On average, ovulation takes place around 14 days before your period up to the start of your next one. On the 1st of September, you were still in the risky day period. Symptoms that occur in the early stages of pregnancy can be the absence of periods, dizziness, and tender breasts. For the best results, a pregnancy test is the most reliable option.
