What should I do if I have sex without knowing I'm pregnant?

Many young couples are not very familiar with the symptoms of early pregnancy. Sometimes they are already pregnant, but the confused fathers and mothers are completely unaware. The pregnant mother only realizes that she is pregnant after having sex. Many young couples are worried and scared when encountering this situation. They don’t know what to do if they have sex if they are pregnant. Will it affect the baby? In fact, it depends on the specific situation. It is recommended not to have sex after pregnancy and pay attention to fetal protection.

I don't know what to do if I'm pregnant and have sex - generally it can be divided into two situations:

1. There are no side effects on the pregnant woman's body after sex:

If the pregnant woman does not feel any discomfort (such as lower abdominal pain or vaginal infection, etc.) after having sex in the early stages of pregnancy, she can rest assured. If there are no signs of miscarriage or infection, it will not affect the baby.

2. The pregnant woman feels uncomfortable after sex:

If a pregnant woman experiences abdominal pain, vaginal infection, bleeding, etc. after intercourse, she should immediately go to a regular hospital to consult a doctor to eliminate related safety hazards. At the same time, she should also do a good job of prenatal examinations (such as Down syndrome screening at 14-20 weeks of pregnancy, and B-ultrasound fetal abnormality screening at 22-26 weeks of pregnancy).

Pregnant women should not have sexual intercourse during the first three months of pregnancy and the last three months of pregnancy. If you have sex in the first three months of pregnancy, it is very easy to cause miscarriage. In the last three months of pregnancy, since you have entered the late stage of pregnancy, having sex is also likely to cause premature birth. You can have sex moderately in the middle few months, but you must be careful not to press the abdomen or be too strong, and let the pregnant woman's mentality guide you. If you have sex in the early stages of pregnancy, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for examination to confirm whether there is any problem. If necessary, take medication based on clinical manifestations and test results. Do not take medication blindly.

How long does it take to get pregnant after having sex under normal circumstances?

First of all, you need to see whether you have sex after ovulation. Generally speaking, pregnancy occurs within 15 to 18 hours after the egg is released from the ovary. The egg life span is two days, and having sex at other times is unlikely to cause pregnancy or the probability is very low. If you want to get pregnant, you should increase the frequency of intercourse during the ovulation period, so that the probability of pregnancy will be greater.

Four criteria necessary for pregnancy:

1. Men can produce perfect and active sperm and discharge them into women's vagina.

2. After entering the vagina, the sperm can maintain its ability to move, and can pass through the cervix and uterus to reach the fallopian tubes and fuse with the egg cells.

3. Women can discharge perfect eggs, which can enter the fallopian tubes on both sides and have the opportunity to combine with male sperm.

4. The sperm and egg combination must reach the uterus in time, and the natural environment of the uterus must be suitable for the growth and development of the sperm and egg combination. The purpose of contraception can be achieved by artificially inhibiting ovulation, preventing the fusion of egg and sperm, or preventing the sperm and egg from entering the uterus and growing. If pregnancy is successful, you can go to the hospital for a blood hCG test 8-11 days after having sex to determine whether you are pregnant.
