Ask the Doctor

Am I pregnant?

Published by

Please I don’t know what to do. I was about to have sex with my boyfriend when the condom he was using tore and he released a little inside me. I took a pill to flush my tummy but I have not seen my period. Please, does it mean I am pregnant?

You are very likely to be pregnant since a drop of semen is enough to lead to conception. Kindly go to a well established Laboratory on how to carry out a pregnancy test which will confirm or rule out the pregnancy.
