Good question from your pharmacist or obgyn.

Also, how careful were you having sex? Like did the guy at least pull out? I believe the following days after your period a woman tends to be the least fertile. I wouldn’t be overly concerned about it right now. Panicking will delay your next period. Which will make you panic more. Trust me I had a scare four years ago and I panicked so much that my period went away for the most part minus mild spotting which obviously made me panic more when in reality I wasn’t even pregnant so at this point it’s best just to wait a month for your next period then if there’s any problems you’ll know. concerning yourself right now isn’t going to do any good. If you are that concerned you can try going to the doctors to get a blood test but I think it’s too early right now to even detect anything if anything actually happened plus with this whole coronavirus thing it’s probably not the best idea to go to the doctor right now unless there’s actually something wrong with you so calm down relax for the next month and deal with it then regardless whether you would consider abortion adoption or actually having the kid you can’t really do anything until after a month anyway.
