Can I be pregnant?

Expert answer:

Is it possible for me to be pregnant?

Probably yes: If you have had unprotected intercourse and if your periods have delayed.

Probably not: If you use contraceptive right, if you use a condom, if you use injection, if the menses come.

PERHAPS: If you had intercourse and did not use a condom in the first month of oral or injectable contraceptive use, if you did not take the injection on the right day, forgot to take the pill on the right day, if you used the morning-after pill, if you have sex with intercourse interrupted, if the condom had burst.

Important: if you menstruate you should not be pregnant. If you want to know if you are pregnant there are only two ways to find out: take a pregnancy or ultrasound exam.

Home pregnancy testing or pharmacy tests for pregnancy has no value for the definition of whether or not you are pregnant, only laboratory tests are reliable and taken into consideration for medical decision making.

One can do blood pregnancy tests or urine pharmacy test from the first day of menstruation delay, however, as small menstrual delays of a few days are very common, we doctors usually wait 15 days of menstrual delay to consider a good indication of pregnancy. The ideal is from that period to seek the doctor and take the pregnancy test.
