A member asked:

Lighter period, took pregnancy test on day of period 19 days post sex then another at 23 days post sex and 5 days after period ended was negative, is this accurate?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes,: and if you had your period even more proof. Please seek an effective contraceptive plan, rather than worrying.
