Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

I recently had sex with a girl who said she has endometriosis and has had a hard time getting pregnant. I used a condom and ejaculated in the condom. Now I have crippling anxiety that I got her pregnant.

Hello,

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

 

Endometriosis can sometimes improve after pregnancy, but it's important to know her age, how many children she has, and whether she's on any medications. A condom, when used correctly with spermicide gel, is over 95-98% effective in preventing pregnancy. You can check for pregnancy with a home test if her period is more than 7-10 days late. If you're in a hurry, a transvaginal scan can detect pregnancy as early as 5 weeks after a missed period.

 

Thanks
