Worried About Pregnancy? Get Expert Advice and Reassurance

Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

On 2 December 2023, I gave a guy a handjob. I didn’t help him to completion, and I suspect I might have had a small amount of pre-ejaculate on my hand, though I’m not sure. Immediately after, I sanitized my hands. About 15-20 minutes later, when I got home, I washed my hands with soap and water. Later, I used the toilet and wiped with toilet paper. I think my finger may have brushed against my vagina, but I’m not certain. I got my period on 16 December, which lasted for five days. The blood started dark, then turned bright red, and ended as brown blood with clots. I’m worried and wondering if I could be pregnant. I know it sounds silly, but I’m a very anxious person, and I’m terrified. Could I be pregnant?

Hello,

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

 

Based on the information you’ve shared, it’s very unlikely that you are pregnant, especially since you got your period on 16 December. The presence of a period, even with changes in blood flow and clotting, generally indicates that pregnancy is not a concern. However, if you’re still feeling anxious or uncertain, it might be helpful to take a pregnancy test or consult with a healthcare professional for a scan to be absolutely certain. It's always okay to seek reassurance if you're feeling uneasy.

 

Thanks
