Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

I had an intimate moment with my girlfriend on December 2nd. She has thyroid issues and sometimes has irregular periods, usually missing them by 3-4 days. We didn’t have penetration, but there was an incident where my sperm got on my hand, and I fingered her after washing my hand. Now, she is late on her period by 14 days. Should I be worried about the situation, and is there a possibility of pregnancy?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

Yes, there is a possibility that she could be pregnant, though it's less likely given the circumstances you've described. However, it’s important to be cautious. I recommend that she take a urine pregnancy test as soon as possible to check for pregnancy. If the test is positive, a visit to a healthcare provider for a scan will help confirm the situation. After that, the next steps, including booking for a potential delivery if necessary, can be determined. It’s always better to get checked for peace of mind.

 

Thanks
