QuestionHi Edward Joseph Ramirez,
I m gayathri from India. I have got irregular periods. I have been undergoing a treatment to conceive. After treatment, i was asked to go in for a follicular study. My follicle ruptured on my 23rd day (Feb 22nd) and we were asked to have intercourse on the same day and the next day. My question is when my follicle ruptures on 23rd day, when will i have my periods? I still din get my periods. Any chances of me being pregnant this month? My last periods was on Jan 30th.
AnswerHello Gayathri from India,
If you don't get pregnant, the menses will usually be 14 days from the day of ovulation. So, if you ovulated on Feb 23, then the period should start on March 8. If you have not yet had a period, then there is a possibility of being pregnant and a pregnancy test would be indicated.
Good Luck,
