Can she get pregnant if I pull out? I'll tell you a true life story

I met this young girl years ago about 18 years old with a child, she sold items just in front of my compound. I had just moved to a new area and was getting to know the people around.

News flies around and she got to find out that I am a doctor, my greatest fear had come true, now everyone on the street will bring their sick children to me instead of going to the hospital.

One day she stopped me and said she wanted to ask me a question, na so e dey start
"Can someone get pregnant if the guy pulls out?

I could see in her eyes that she was honest and really wanted to know
She had just finished secondary school when they went back to school before results were released and they were doing nothing in school so mischief set in.

Someone met me years ago and asked if she could take ampiclox to prevent pregnancies😧

I was shocked, the sperm and eggs are not bacteria that need antibiotics. There are two different things!

I had to start teaching her about contraception

A Thread.

Emergency contraceptives is one way to prevent pregnancies if you happen to not use a condom or miss your regular contraception

The most common one is what we call the morning after pill. This works by delaying the release of eggs from the ovary

So the sperm has nothing to meet
It also works by stopping fertilization, if it has not occurred already.

In some cases, it can be said to prevent implanting in the uterus.
