My mom had her whole ovary removed because of a ruptured ovarian cyst the size of a baby's head. Her pre-surgery X-ray showed clear lungs, but now she has sepsis in her lungs. Could the surgery have caused this?

I'm really stressed out and need some advice. Is there a possibility I could be pregnant? We had unprotected sex two days before I was supposed to get my period. My cycles usually between 31 and 33 days. We did it on day 31, three times, and he always pulled out before finishing. I also made sure he peed after every time. But now Im worried because I read online that precum can make you pregnant. What do you think?

Although the chances are low, pregnancy is possible even with the pull-out method and precum exposure; considering your cycle and timing, take a home pregnancy test 4-5 days after your missed period for accurate results, and if you're concerned or experience symptoms, consult a gynaecologist
