Will I get pregnant if I insert gel immediately after intercourse?

Under normal circumstances, using regular gel suppositories immediately after intercourse cannot prevent pregnancy, and there is still a risk of pregnancy; however, if a dedicated emergency contraceptive gel is used, the risk of pregnancy can be reduced. The detailed analysis is as follows:

Regular gel suppositories have no contraceptive effect. After intercourse, sperm quickly move toward the cervix, and such gels cannot block the movement of sperm or kill them. They only clean the vaginal surface and do not alter the likelihood of conception. If intercourse occurs during the ovulation period, the risk of pregnancy is relatively high.

Emergency contraceptive gels contain ingredients that either kill sperm or inhibit implantation of the fertilized egg. When used promptly after intercourse, they can act quickly on sperm, impairing their activity or interfering with the fertilization process, thereby effectively reducing the risk of pregnancy. However, these products must be used strictly according to the instructions, as their effectiveness significantly decreases if used beyond the recommended time window.

If pregnancy is not currently planned, it is advisable to use conventional contraceptive methods such as condoms or short-term oral contraceptives, which are safer and more reliable. Before using any gel product, ensure you understand its intended purpose, maintain hand and external genital hygiene, and avoid improper handling that could lead to gynecological infections.
