hi..
In doing some research myself, i read up that your chances at any given time to fall pregnant are somewhere between 23%-35% even during ovulation. Its uncommon to fall pregnant after such a short time after her period ended. conditions must be perfect for sperm to survive and even then sperm will only survive,at max, 7 days. ovulation occurs 12-14 days into her cycle.the egg will not survive more than 24 hours. 9 days into her cycle + 7 days sperm COULD survive = 16days.. chances are slim she could be pregnant.
Best way to know, go to a doctor.
HI,
You should consult a doctor to find out why is your period missing for 5 years.
once that is solved (including checks on your reproductive system) , having a kid should be on the way.
You have to post a new question to the doctor in order to get a response. Questions posted on other threads are not responded to. ($22) fee for questions posted in the expert forum.

Hi!
You are still within the window of opportunity to use Plan B. It can be used up to 96 hours after "the fact". Although it is more effective if used within 24-48 hours.
You may not be in trouble. Most women ovulate on cycle day 13 or 14. Sperm can live in the reproductive tract for up to 3 days. If you had intercourse on day 9 there could have been sperm surviving long enough to fertilize an egg released on day 12. Since she has long cycles though, her calculated ovulation day would be cycle day 26, and the sperm would have been long gone by then.
She can start doing pregnancy tests as soon as 10 days after "the event", but I wouldn't expect to see a positive result until she misses her period which should be the end of November. You two may want to use a less risky method of birth control, such as oral contraceptives. Also, keep Plan B in mind for those occasional "oopsies".
Good luck!
Dr B
