consult online for further evaluation and management

You can consult a gynecologist immediately and discuss options like a copper IUD, which can be effective in preventing pregnancy up to 10 days after unprotected intercourse. It’s crucial to act quickly since timing is important. If it’s already past the window for emergency prevention, you’ll need to wait until the next menstrual period to confirm whether pregnancy has occurred. If there’s a delay or concern, a pregnancy test can be taken around the time the period is expected or after a missed period.

I know this can feel overwhelming, but a gynecologist will guide you through the best next steps. You’re not alone, and help is available. Don’t hesitate to seek medical advice right away.
