Hello Darsh,

I understand your concern and worry. Let me helo you.

If sexual intercourse happens during periods, the girl CAN’T GET PREGNANT. Plus, you’re saying that ejaculation didn’t happen inside the vagina, so you can be assured that there is no risk of pregnancy, overall.

Plus, ipill should be taken only once. If a girl takes ipill multiple times, she might face some other hormonal issues. So, no need to take further ipills.

Feel free to reach our again.

Regards,

Dr. Nirav Jain MBBS, DNB D.Fam.Med

Hi there, See ma’am since no ejaculation occured inside there’s no chance of getting a pregnancy. Secondly you were on your periods it is near zero odds for getting pregnant. Lastly, taking ipill has hormonal side effects you didn’t have to take it even on 8th but since you have taken it there’s no need to take it again. In simple words don’t worry your pregnancy chances are negligible.

Risk of pregnancy is very low during menstruation, especially if no ejaculation inside. Taking i-pill unnecessarily may cause menstrual irregularities, spotting, hormonal imbalance. Emergency contraceptive pills are meant for occasional emergency use only.

Since you already took i-pill on 8th Sept, do not repeat it this cycle. For this recent episode (during periods, no ejaculation), you do not need another i-pill.

Hi Darsh,

NO NEED TO TAKE I PILL AGAIN . There was no ejaculation inside vagina,and intercourse done during periods but still u took I pill . Hence YOU ARE COMPLETELY SAFE,no chance for pregnancy.

Taking I pill more than once in a cycle can disturb your hormonal balance. So try to avoid that.

Repeated use of i pill in same month is not recommended.

I hope your doubts are cleared Thank you

Since ejaculation did not occur inside the vagina, the risk of pregnancy is extremely low, but taking an emergency pill (i-pill) as a precaution is generally safe. Emergency contraception should not be used frequently—ideally only in rare situations—and more than once in a menstrual cycle is not recommended unless absolutely necessary. Do not take it again for the same incident, and consider consulting a gynecologist for advice on safe contraception methods.

Having unprotected sex during your period generally carries a lower risk of pregnancy, especially if there was no ejaculation inside the vagina. However, it’s important to understand that sperm can sometimes survive in the female reproductive tract for up to five days, and ovulation timing can vary. If your cycle is irregular or short, there could be a chance of overlap with fertile days. Considering you recently took an emergency contraceptive pill (ECP) on September 8, it’s crucial to be aware that frequent use of ECP is not recommended. Ipill can be effective to prevent pregnancy after unprotected intercourse or contraception failure, but it is intended for occasional use, not as a regular contraceptive method. Taking it multiple times within a short period, like the same cycle, could lead to side effects such as menstrual irregularities, nausea, or hormonal imbalance. If you’re considering taking another ipill, weigh the necessity against potential side effects. If you’re unsure, a healthcare provider could help weigh options based on your regular cycle, the incidence timing, and whether you have other reliable contraception. It’s also worthwhile to explore regular contraception methods that might suit your lifestyle better, such as oral contraceptive pills, patches, or long-acting methods, which can provide more consistent pregnancy prevention. It’s advisable not to rely on ECP multiple times a month, and if you find yourself needing it often, this could indicate a need to reassess your primary contraceptive strategy. If there’s any concern about potential pregnancy, consider following up with pregnancy testing or professional medical advice, and remember to address ongoing contraception needs proactively.
