A member asked:
Will my period be thrown off if was abstinent for nearly a year, then finally had intercourse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only if you are...: Only if you are now pregnant from finally having intercourse... in which case your menstrual period will be thrown off by about 11 months. Otherwise, one's period should not change its timing, regardless of having sex or not having sex.
