QuestionHi doctor,
My period starts on the 10th and ends on the 15th, but on the 19th day I have external ejaculation. So the doctor asked me if I could get pregnant by having sex outside of my period 4 days after my period? The menstrual cycle is 28 days. Because I do not want to abuse drugs, I have not taken birth control pills. In this case, should I actively take emergency contraception to ensure safety? Please advise, thank you doctor.

Hi friends,
With the question "Can you get pregnant by having sex outside your period 4 days after your period? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Your menstrual cycle is 28 days, the day of ovulation is usually the 14th day of the menstrual cycle. If you have sex outside the vagina on the 9th day of the menstrual cycle, the possibility of pregnancy can still happen, but not high.
Emergency contraception is only highly effective when taken as close to the time of intercourse as possible (usually within 72 hours) and should not be abused.
If you still have questions about external ejaculation, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
