Question 1

i just had unprotected sex and im taking duphastone pills for my irregular period, can i take emergency contraception pills like plan b to prevent pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

: "Plan B" can be taken with the information provided, but chances are that ovulation did not occur given your history of irregular periods and the "duphastone" regimen.  "Plan B", in any case is not 100% certain to prevent pregnancy, so in 20 days, get a "home" pregnancy test for reassurance.  See your GYN physician for guidance on taking regular oral low dose bcp's.

Question 2

i have irregular periods, i had unprotected sex when can i take a pregnancy test?

Accepted Answer

After missed period: . Many manufacturers of urine pregnancy tests want you to believe that the urine test is usually positive before a missed period, but only about 25% of pregnant women will test positive with the HPT 2 days before a missed period, and about 40% the day before the missed period. -

Best to wait a for a few days after your missed period to do the test.

Question 3

i had unprotected sex five days ago and i have irregular periods. now i have spotting. when would it be possible to take a pregnancy test?

Accepted Answer

In 2 days: A lot of new generation pregnancy tests are very accurate. However they all have varying detection times. Your best choice is to actually look at the test box and see when they say they can detect. The ones that detect sooner are more expensive. 
Spotting this soon is not a sign of pregnancy.

Question 4

i had unprotected sex on 7/15. had my periods on 7/19 and on 8/15, still waiting for next one. took pregnancy test 2 weeks ago, then another one a week ago, both were negative. could both results be false? i also have irregular periods sometimes.

Accepted Answer

Doubtful: The new home pregnancy tests are very reliable; however, it is time to get on BC pills and have your sexual partner use condoms.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Yes: A pregnancy test is usually positive within  2-3 weeks of conception.  If you had regular periods, this would be about the time of a delayed period.
