A member asked:
If you have sex the week before your period is due will it still come on time?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: If you are not pregnant, your period should come on time unless you have a hormonal cause of irregular periods. Aside from causing pregnancy, having sex will not affect your periods.

Yes: Sex will not generally cause a change in your period unless you get pregnant (or have related stress and anxiety).
