I'm taking regestrone 5mg tablets because my gynaecologist suggested them since my periods got delayed. We had unprotected sex and he ejaculated inside. I'm really worried about getting pregnant now. What are the chances of becoming pregnant while taking regestrone? Just so you know, I did a pregnancy test before starting regestrone and it came back negative.

Regestrone is a synthetic progestin that helps regulate the menstrual cycle. While it can help with delayed periods, it is not a contraceptive method. The chances of getting pregnant while on regestrone are still present, especially if unprotected intercourse occurs. It is important to use additional contraceptive methods to prevent pregnancy. If you are concerned about pregnancy, you may consider emergency contraception like Levonorgestrel 1.5mg as a precautionary measure within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.

I've just had a follicular study on day 14 of my cycle, and it showed I have a mature follicle in my right ovary that's 21x23 and another on the left side that's 23x24, so it seems like two eggs might rupture. I'm wondering if this increases my chances of having twins? Also, I've been experiencing some lower stomach pain on the left side and I'm a bit concerned about it. Can you help clarify things for me? I'm feeling a bit confused about what's going on.

-Hello! If both the right and left ovaries have mature follicles, there is a possibility of releasing two eggs, which could result in a twin pregnancy. However, it's not guaranteed, as successful fertilization of both eggs is required. The lower stomach p
