Yep, there’s a lot of good information there and I sensed a bit of a lack of understanding about periods and healthcare.
From that same article:
However, sex with a penis in the five days before ovulation can also lead to pregnancy since sperm can live up to five days inside of you when it’s nice and happy swimming around in the type of cervical mucus you have coating your vagina at this point in the cycle.
Change and irregularities in your cycle make it hard to precisely calculate of the day of ovulation.
The context of this is still the comic where a woman with a gunshot wound is complaining of a gunshot wound, where the doctor has asked when her last period occurred instead of taking care of the open would. Something you kinda glossed over in favor of knocking at the weakest part of my comment — my use of the word “nothing.” This tells me you don’t really care about understanding another viewpoint, you’re trying to score a point in the argument.
Anyway, if someone’s last period was three weeks ago, they could be pregnant. If it was six months ago, they could be pregnant. If it was seven months ago, they could have an IUD or another birth control, which could cause a drug interaction, so that’s good to know. If she’s on her period right now, she could be breastfeeding, and studies have shown local anaesthetic will shows up in breast milk.
In Canada, I get asked if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding if there might be an issue, not this roundabout period date bullshit.

The weakest part of your comment? It was the first sentence of your comment. That’s where people put their strongest point. The point that they want to emphasize the most.
And what’s your argument without that point? That the question is only useful sometimes? That makes it like almost every other question the doctor asks. If it’s sometimes useful, and when it’s useful, it’s very useful, then it makes sense for a doctor to ask the question.
Your argument is strongest if you can pretend the question about periods is never useful. I believe that’s why you led off with the point. Because it was your strongest point and essential to your argument. And that’s why I focused on it.
