A member asked:

After having sex and a lady sees her mestrual period and disappeared the following day is there any risk of her getting pregnant?

Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Possibly: Would wonder if she was having breakthrough bleeding if her periods aren't usually just a day long (which would be short). Bottom line is that if it was not her period, than pregnancy is possible. Use protection every time you have intercourse if unready to be a father.

Dr Pappas and another doctor agreed
