Stress can effect your flow but even if he did not come when you had sex there is still a chance of pregnancy. How do you know he has never had precum? You can't exactly see it when it is inside you.
Wait until your next period would be due and if it does not come take a pregnancy test using first morning urine.
Always use protection.
Well, he has never had it before. Why would he have it now?
And yeah I know I can't see what's going on while he is inside of me but we only did anything for like 3mins and he kept taking it out just to be sure..
How do you know he never "had it before" Preejaculate is present whenever a man is aroused. It is the male form of lubrication and does contain sperm.
That's the sad thing. Birth control pills give a false sense of security, 98.7% effective, well, that's not 100%.
I have a friend who has endomitriosis, one ovary, polysystic ovarian disease and many other health problems. She was told she'd never have children but her and her boyfriend tried anyway, they had two, the doctor said they were lucky.
Well, her boyfriend (soon to be hubby) was due to go in for a vasectomy, they decided two was enough, but until the procedure, she went on the pill and they used condoms. Guess what, she's now pregnant with her third, due in January.
In other words, if you're relying on birth control, you're putting your faith in something that isn't always effective, it's still very possible to get pregnant.
Abstinence is the only thing that works 100%, I doubt that they'll ever come up with a fool proof pill or other form of contraceptive, and even if they do, there's still human error.
Bottom line, don't want a baby, don't have sex. Also, STD's are always a possibility, even when you use a condom, condoms aren't anywhere near 100% effective and the chance of human error is even higher. Most people don't use condoms correctly, even if they did there's still a chance of failure.

Wow I had no idea that would be possible. I'm 21 and my ex said the doctors told her her overies were kinda small and I have been in many fites and hit in the balls so I rarely used a condom for 5 years. Thank you for the advice my eyes are very wide lol. I like all you have to say, you'r very interesting to read.
21Male. I'd love to read your post, sadly the red is way too hard on the eyes.
Most people will just pass your posts by. Reading shouldn't hurt. ;)
Please post in black.
Thank you.
This thread is a great idea. Many people don't know about sexual issues.
I think some things are different for different people.
My husband and I have unprotected sex (I cannot take any form of pill/implent etc etc) and we don't like condoms. We use the pull out method (he is exceptionally skilled ;) ) and we have never been pregnant. Not ever, not once.
I always thought it was very easy to become pregnant, but I guess that is not alwas the case.
I myself would love a child, but we are waiting a little bit longer for various reasons.
Has anyone else experienced the same thing? I.e unprotected sex with the pull out method for years, and no pregnancy?
And if that is too general a question - has anyone gotten pregnant while using the pull-out method? (on here, I mean).
What are some of the main symptons for being pregnant?

I know about statutory rape (consentual sex between a minor and someone of legal age), but I have never heard of two people (say both 15 or both 16) being punished for having sex.
Also, isn't there a grace period or leeway of sorts where someone of legal age can have sex with someone underage--as long as there is only like a year or two difference between the two people?
Am I wrong?
P.S. I'm 18, so this does not apply to me anymore. I'm also not saying I condone or condemn underage sex.
Thanks.
I lost my birth control packet so I haven't been on it for a couple of weeks. I ended up having sex with a close guy friend, actually I made him wear a condom when I gave him head and then a new one when we had sex because I wanted to make sure we were safe. It got kind of awkward so in the middle we kind of just stopped and I put my clothes back on. So there was no ejaculation. This was on Wednesday (yes I realize it was only two days ago) but the thing is I should have started my period already. Instead I had this weird brownish red colored discharge. I had some cramps and my body acted like I was going to get my period but I haven't.
Is it possible that the pre ejaculation fluids could have gotten me pregnant even using a condom?
Also if I don't get my period soon when should I test?
If I am pregnant could my antidepressants or my ritilan hurt the baby? Should I stop taking these?
Yes, there is a possibility you could be pregnant, you are having sex, the only fool-proof way to not get pregnant is abstinance.
It's not terribly likely that you are pregnant but I would give it a few more days and then try a pregnancy test if you haven't started.
The brownish discharge is probably the beginning of your period, so only time will tell. Your body could also be off schedule since you haven't taken your birth control in a couple of weeks.
Only a few days? It will pick up by then?
Try a week, if you feel a few days are too soon.
Depending on your schedule some pregnancy tests can tell you as early as your missed period.
Unlikely that you are but like Justy said, any time you have sex there's a chance of pregnancy.
If you only had sex 2 days ago then it's way too early to test. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that you're probably just having an off month, but that's just a guess.
As for your medication, I don't know about Ritalin but the anti-depressants, it depends on what kind you're using. If you are pregnant then it's best to see your doctor right away because of these medications, so you can determine the best way to proceed.
Good luck.
Thank you! I will post what happens :)
Oh and the antidepressant is zoloft
I got my period.
Thank you for the answers :-)
Hey most of u girls out there if u are sexuly active I need help can you go to my profile and anweser the only queston on thr thanks
If it's a question about sex then be forewarned, you must be 18 or over to post in the sexuality forum, and we will not give sexual advice to anyone under 18.Quote:

Three years ago I uneducatedly used something for masturbation that I shouldn't have and it cut me pretty bad.. and not "reg" masturbation but the OTHER area.. I'm kind of worried now about infection/cuts should I go to the doctor, what would I say?
That was 3 years ago. Nothing to worry about now.
Ok I hope I don't sound uneducated.
I am on the contraceptive pill, have been for 5 years. I'm 23 and engaged.
When I was 18 I got pregnant while on the pill and using condoms, but had a miscarriage - that was with a previous partner.
I always take my pill on time, but I missed it on Friday - (which would have been the first day of my ovulation cycle) then had sex with no condom a few times over the weekend and during the week since, during the time I would have been ovulating.
I know it's a waiting game really, but I would like to know the chances of being pregnant? Even though I resumed taking my pill?
I wasn't planning a baby, but now my fiancé and I have talked about the fact that there is a chance I might be, we're both excited - but don't want to build our hopes up just in case.
JayJay, there's no way to predict this. I can't even give you reliable odds.
The pill is supposed to suppress ovulation but missing one can really mess that up. You definitely increased the odds by not using a condom as well.
Really, it's a waiting game. There's a chance at pregnancy but that true even if you take your pill religiously and use a condom every time.
You'll have to wait and see.
Thanks.
I'll have to wait until 2010 to see if I am lol.
Soooo long!
I am 17 days late for my period I have taken 2 pregnancy tests one when I was 3 days late and another when I was 12 days late and they both came back negative I spotted one time after having sex but I haven't since then.I have been nausea and for a week or so I would feel really hungry but then I would go to eat and I would only eat a couple bites. Earlier today I kind of felt like I was getting a urinary tract infection but right now I don't feel like that I am supposed to go to the doctor sometime next week but I really need to know. Please help mee!
There's really nothing we can help you with. If you are pregnant then the only way to know is to get a positive pregnancy test, be it with a home test kit or at the doctors office.Quote:

It's also cold and flu season.
Not all women get a positive result right away. It depends on your HCG levels, if you are in fact pregnant.
Wait another week and then test again, or go to your doctor.
Good luck.
Well this thread died. Hi Alty! *waves*
Anyway, here's one for the women who are already very pregnant (like me, at 37 weeks).
Last night at work I stood up from my chair and my hip felt like someone was trying to pull my leg out of the socket. When I went in for my doc appointment today she examined my leg and told me it was most likely from the hormones my body is releasing to prepare for birth. Now, my question is... after I got home, I went to walk to the bathroom (for the 50th time in an hour) and EVERYTHING in my nether regions hurt. I was just wondering if this could be more of the same thing with my hip/pelvic region, or if it could be because my mini me is head down and knocking to be let out of her cage. I was 1 cm dialated 2 weeks ago.
Likely the pain when you got up was from the hormone relaxin and ligaments stretching. Relaxin does exactly what it sounds like... this can cause hip/pelvic/leg/lower back/etc. pain as the joints in the pelvis become more loose.
It is not uncommon for women to feel more pelvic pressure/pain towards the end of pregnancy... again part of the body preparing for birth as baby moves down farther. (some women say they feel as though the baby is about to fall out!) If you have one, sitting on a birth ball may help as this provides some counter pressure. It can also help with any hip and back pain and is great during labor too.
Of course always check back with your doctor if it becomes very painful or causes you concern. Not much longer!
Lol yeah, She rotated my leg until I felt like a pretzel and I had no pain, but oh buddy, as soon as I walk and put pressure on it, I want to scream. I was thinking that that's what it was. Yup... not much longer. I already threatened my poor husband that next time, he better not get me pregnant in the fall cause this has been one miserable summer. Go figure, last year we had 1 frickin day of hot weather and the rest of the summer was spring like weather but this year when I'm carrying an extra 23 pounds, it's been near 90 nearly every day, and that isn't including the humidity (and me, being the genius that I am, live in a house that has a lake in front and a swamp in back)
You must be in the south... :) Two of my pregnancies were in the southwest during summer, but they say it's a dry heat! HA! You might also find using a belly band for support helps... worth a try. Try to stay cool!
Oh I remember that time. Don't remember it with fondness either. ;)
Chameleon, you're at the "I'd rip off my own arm to get this baby out" stage. Thankfully the end is in sight. :)
I had both of my kids in the fall, gained 80 pounds with both, and the summer I was pregnant with my son was El Nino. Over 35 degrees every freaking day! I was ready to kill someone.
This too shall pass. Get your rest, get hubby to buy an air conditioner, he'll do it if he doesn't want to lose a limb. ;)
Doula- depends on your definition of south. I live in Indiana and nope. It isn't a dry heat lol.
Alty-no not quite to that stage yet. I'm 37 weeks and I'm measuring at 36 but the dr didn't seem too concerned since I'm only 1cm off on my measurments. So far I've only gained 23 pounds but since my meddling husband talked to the nurse before I got in the room, I am now on light duty at work, so that will probably change. Yeah when we moved out our old house our central air unit moved with us, or I'd be more miserable than I am now lol.
This is why they say it only takes once to get pregnant. I had my period on my 5 year wedding anniversary and had sex only once that month (hubby was gone a lot) and tested positive on 2 different HPT 3 days after Thanksgiving, not even a full month later lol. Didn't even take the 3 minutes. It was showing a blue line before I was even done actully taking the test.
Ugghhh... I wish the docs would get together and STOP measuring after a certain date. It really scares some women when they hear that the dates and measurements don't match up.
Measuring past a particular point is actually pretty pointless as the measurements aren't nearly as accurate as they are in early pregnancy.
Grrr, I never measure my patients. I always go by the LMP and the ultrasound report. We don't even get measurements in the copies of our prenatal records the docs send over.
Oh, oops sorry, went off on a tangent there.
Chameleon, if you came to my department today, at 37 weeks, I wouldn't stop your labor! ;) You're closer to full term than the 34 week baby I have in the nursery tonight.
Lol I don't think she will either since I'm due August 13th, which doesn't make sense to me. By a calendar, I only have about 2 1/2 weeks left. By the pregnancy calendar I'm 37 weeks, so wouldn't that mean I have 5 weeks left? I'm soooo confuzzled...
Anyway, I digress... I don't think she would stop my labor, but she also said she will not induce labor before 39 weeks... which is fine. I don't want to have to look at a calendar and go "Oh gee....that day right there is the day I chose to put myself in agonizing pain".
Speaking of birth control... I've been told (and personally I wouldn't want to risk it) that breast feeding is a natural form of birth control... fact or fiction?
Breastfeeding is a good form of contraception, but only when it is exclusive and frequent... no supplementing. As with any other form of contraception, it is not 100% effective, but it is high up there until you start spacing out feeds or supplementing.
If you want to increase the odds of not becoming pregnant sooner than you would like to, use another form along with the breastfeeding. Definitely use something else in conjunction with it if you start to supplement and/or when feedings start to become spaced out more.
Some women will find it works well for them for quite some time, others become pregnant sooner then they had planned to... again, like any other form of contraception... :)
My handy dandy Similac Advance Gestation Wheel, the same one the doctors use, put you are 37 weeks and 4 days if your due date is August 13. ;)Quote:

This is when we admit you to have your baby no matter how far along you are.Quote:

Lol actually, we'll probably go back to what we did before we decided to try (well, he tried.. I just didn't prevent)... condoms. Then after the second one, we're done. I'll have 2 and he'll have 3, so a certain someone will be getting a vasectomy (yeah, he already knows this).Quote:
