Question 3

8 days before period & i feel nauseous at everything even food i liked. constantly getting dizzy. had unprotected sex while ovulating. ?

Accepted Answer

Though it is rare: To have symptoms so early, it's possible they are related to pregnancy. They also might be due to anxiety if you are worried about pregnancy. The simplest way to find out is to use a pregnancy test close to when you would normally have your period. In the meantime try to relax. You can't go back in time and change the past. Good luck either way, whether you want to be pregnant or not. Be well!

Question 4

i had unprotected sex while ovulating, i took plan b about 30 hours later. i also had the mirena (levonorgestrel) iud inserted 2 days later. should i be worried?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely Pregnant: Plan B can work in one of three ways depending on where you are in your cycle. It can prevent or delay ovulation, can interfere with the fertilization of the egg or may prevent implantation by altering the lining of the uterus. If you take Plan B One-Step within 24 hours, it is about 95% effective. The mirena (levonorgestrel) really won't have an effect on this unprotected encounter.

Question 6

how soon can i get pregnant if i had unprotected sex while ovulating?

Accepted Answer

Immediately: Having sex during ovulation is when pregnancy occurs. If this is your goal then you are on track. If this is not your goal Use over the counter Plan B if intercourse was within 72 hours to decrease the risk of unplanned pregnancy.  Then see a doctor to start birth control.

Question 7

had unprotected sex while ovulating, took postinor 2 within an hour. can i get pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Little chance: A morning-after pill taken within 2 days after sex is very effective in preventing pregnancy. It is about 95% effective, which translates to:  if 100 women take the pill the day after sex, about 5 women get pregnant, and 95 will not get pregnant from that sex. The morning-after pill works less well on days 3, 4, or 5 after sex. One should do a urine pregnancy test 3 weeks after sex, to be sure.
