Family Planning Plus

Pregnancy is always possible when you have unprotected sex.

Without charting your menstrual cycles, basal body temperature, and cervical mucus characteristics on a daily basis for several months, it is difficult to know when your fertile period is. Every woman is unique and may ovulate at different times during her cycle. In general, however, women who have regular 28 day cycles (from the first day of the period to the first day of the next period) ovulate approximately 14 days prior to menstrual bleeding or about a week after the period ends.

If you do not wish to be pregnant, please do not continue to have unprotected sex. Either abstain from sexual intercourse or use a method of birth control.

If you live near one of our offices, please call us for an appointment. We can talk with you about all of your birth control options and help you choose one that best fits your lifestyle. If you live further away, contact the Family Planning or Planned Parenthood office closest to you.
