There are no “wrong” answers here, and nobody is judging you. Any personal question can always be answered with “I'd rather not say”. This is a pointer, not a diagnosis.

I'll start with the simplest thing. The next questions depend on your answers — I won't ask anything I don't need.

Have you had sex with a partner this cycle?

One technical point: pregnancy is only possible if your partner produces semen.

Does your partner produce semen?

Was there vaginal penetration?

Why I'm asking: occasionally semen gets inside by accident — from hands, toys, or sex without penetration. The chance of pregnancy is much lower then, but not quite zero.

Could semen have gotten into the vagina, even by accident?

Slip-ups happen to everyone and are nothing to be ashamed of. I only need this to suggest the right step.

Did you use protection that time?

This isn't a judgement and doesn't commit you to anything — it only changes which steps I suggest.

If a pregnancy is confirmed — would it be good news for you right now?

Why timing matters: emergency contraception works best within the first 72 hours, some kinds — up to 5 days. The decision is always yours alone.

When did it happen?

If there's pain or bleeding — see a doctor today

Severe lower-belly pain or unusual bleeding with a possible pregnancy is checked right away, not later.

What you can do

  • Contact a doctor or urgent care today
  • Bring your cycle dates from HeySis

There's a chance — here's a calm plan

By your answers, there is a chance. That doesn't mean pregnancy has happened — you have clear next steps, and every decision here is yours.

What you can do

  • If pregnancy isn't in your plans right now, ask a doctor or pharmacist about emergency contraception today: it's meant to be used as soon as possible
  • Test from the first day of a missed period (or 3 weeks after sex). Earlier tests can be wrong
  • If you're hoping to be pregnant — wait for the missed-period day and test in the morning
  • Keep logging in HeySis — we'll spot a delay together

nothing worrying here

The chance looks low

Your answers suggest a low chance, but this check can't rule out pregnancy. It's okay to worry. Take a test at the right time, following its instructions. If it's negative and your period still hasn't started, repeat it in a few days.

What you can do

  • If your period is late — test from day one of the delay
  • Log your days in HeySis so a delay shows up right away
  • Unsure about your answers — retake the check or ask Mia

This is a hint, not a diagnosis. If you're unsure, a doctor will know best.
