In early pregnancy, around 10 days after intercourse, some women may experience mild symptoms such as implantation bleeding, light cramping, breast tenderness, and fatigue. These symptoms can vary and are often similar to those seen before a missed period, so a pregnancy test after a missed period is the most reliable way to confirm pregnancy.

Hey, I'm really concerned about something. My friend had oral sex with her boyfriend, and now she's freaking out because she's missed her period. We're trying to figure out what could be going on. Does oral sex affect periods somehow? Could there be any other reasons she might be late? We're kinda stressed about this, so any insights would be really helpful.

Its understandable for your friend to be worried, but missing a period can happen due to various reasons like stress, hormonal changes, or other health factors. If shes concerned about pregnancy, even though oral sex typically doesnt lead to pregnancy, it might be helpful for her to take a pregnancy test or consult a healthcare provider for further reassurance.
