Anonymous asked: Hi! I'm in the middle of a pregnancy scare, and I'm worried sick. On the 12th I had protected sex with my boyfriend. He finished inside me and only pulled out after 5 seconds. When I looked, the condom seemed to slip/come of just a BIT and semen wasn't in the tip, it was on his shaft. The condom did not break. I should have my period on the 22nd. I have ovulation discharge, so I haven't conceived? I'm worried his cum could've leaked or anything when it almost slipped. Should I be worried?

Really all you can do at this point is wait. If you miss your period or it’s lighter or shorter than usual take a pregnancy test just in case. Even when used correctly with no problems, there’s always a chance of pregnancy. There is a chance it may have leaked. I would try a size smaller or a different brand to see if you can find some thing that fits better. You may need something with a flared head so it’s tighter at the base. Remember, the condom shouldn’t gap or move around but it shouldn’t hurt the penis or leave an indention in the skin either.

Anonymous asked: could you answer this quickly.. i'm really freaking out. i had sex with this guy and it didnt last long, but he didnt have a condom on (this was about 4 weeks ago). i'm on birth control and have been for about 7 months now. i take my pill every day, and have never missed a day. and i try to take it around the same time every day. since ive started my birth control, i havent had a period. so how will i know if i "miss my period" if i dont have one? also my nipples have been really sensitive

Your chances of being pregnant are really small, around 1%. You should try your best to calm down, its highly unlikely that you could have gotten pregnant. If your still concerned you can take a pregnancy test which should accurately tell you by now if you’re pregnant regardless of whether you get your period or not. Also don’t worry about your nipples, sensitivity is a common occurrence and can have nothing to do with pregnancy.

Anonymous asked: My last period ended on 21 March and is due on the 11/12 April (I have a 21 day cycle.) On the 28 March I had brown discharge and my doctor said it was bacterial vaginosis and gave me treatment. Today, 2/3 days before my period is due, I have brown discharge again with little white clumps in it. It looks like it has blood in it and I am freaking out that it is implantation pregnancy. I know this sounds stupid but my boyfriend did finger me on 22 March (only then) we haven't had sex and I have...

 heard stories that when sperm is on the finger it can swim up the vaginal canal and make you pregnant. My boyfriend did touch himself before touching me but only to put his dick back in his pants. Do you think this is implantation bleeding? It was quite a heavy brownish discharge that looked like it had blood in it and it hasn’t returned at all today. I’m going to buy a pregnancy test but I’m so worried about this. Please help, what do you think??? (And I can’t talk to my parents about it)

FYSE: You need visible semen on the hands for pregnancy to be possible from manual stimulation. I’d say there’s no chance of pregnancy. It’s probably just menstrual irregularities, it’s common for you to have some brown spotting (old blood) before your period.

Anonymous asked: I have a feeling that i'm pregnant but my boyfriend says i'm not. We use a condom every time. But in the last week i fault nauseous off and on all day. I get out of breath easily, headaches, sore back, and stomach pains. I've already taken two pregnancy tests both negative, but is there a chance i've taken them too early? How early can a blood test detect pregnancy?

Have you missed any periods? Discount pregnancy symptoms, because they can be symptoms of about a million different things. The main thing you need to pay attention to is your period. Any time you miss your period or it’s lighter or shorter than usual you need to take a pregnancy test. If you have irregular periods so that you don’t have them every 3-4 weeks (about the time it takes for a pregnancy test to be accurate) then take a pregnancy test every month to every couple of months. A blood test for pregnancy can detect the hormone levels a lot sooner than a urine test, but a lot of times doctors will tell you just to wait for a urine test because blood tests are more expensive and a lot more work on their part. Try not to worry too much, if it’s too soon for a urine test to tell if you’re pregnant, it’s too soon for you to be having pregnancy symptoms. It takes a while for pregnancy symptoms to occur, and it’s different for everyone as to what symptoms you have and their severity.

Anonymous asked: Hi, I can't tell if I'm bloated or pregnant. It's been 11 days after I finished my period (at least I think it was, same signs, same cramps, same amount of time) and this belly won't go away! Is it water retention? Is it Easter food still? Or am I pregnant and just don't know it yet?

When was the last time you had sex? You don’t gain much weight and don’t show during the first 3 months of pregnancy. It’s usually around the 4th or 5th months that you actually begin to show. There’s many things that can make you gain weight or become bloated like of course any holiday food or eating more or exercising less or it being around your period. Also, when you’re under 25 your body goes through a lot of shape changes which can include changes in your stomach without cause. If you’re worried about pregnancy, take a test.

Anonymous asked: my boyfriend and i were messing around about 3 weeks ago and he ejaculated on my hand. there could be a possibility that some precum got on my stomach. i was wearing jeans and underwear-i'd just started my period. after he ejaculated i washed my hands thoroughly but i'm still worried because i didn't do anything about the possible precum on my stomach If it was there it dried and I didn't notice it I'm only 20 never had sex before and am just worried about pregnancy chances given my circumstance

There’s no chance of pregnancy if you had clothes on, and as soon as semen dries or is no longer visible the sperm are gone or dead. You have nothing to worry about!

Anonymous asked: Help me please. I had sex for the first time with my boyfriend on March 2, and i was two days into my period. He wore a condom and pulled out, but during he slipped out a couple times. Im now 5 days late for my period, and i've been really stressing about being pregnant. I took two tests a couple days before my expected period and they were negative, but im still late. I have a clear discharge and im crampy, but no blood.

I’d take another test just to be sure, but there’s a million different things that can cause a missed period so I really wouldn’t worry again unless you miss more than 3 in a row and then you should see a doctor.

Anonymous asked: I'm 17 and I've had sex three times with my boyfriend within three weeks, we used a condom each time and there was no sign of it breaking at all. I'm due for my period any day now and am getting nervous. My boobs have been hurting a lot and I've been in a terrible mood like I would be before my period. I've also noticed more whiteish discharge down there. Should I be as worried as I am about being pregnant?

I’d take a pregnancy test now and one a week later just in case even if you have a period if it’s lighter or shorter than usual, but try not to worry.

Anonymous asked: Well I lied to my partner about me being on birth control.... Now I'm two weeks late with my period.... Well I recently told him I lied about being on the birth control and I hurt his feelings.. What should I say to mend the situation ... I really screwed up...

I’m sure you know that lying to your partner about birth control or STIs is a huge no-no. Not only does it betray trust it puts both your partner’s and your health and lives at risk. If you are pregnant your partner is put through stress that they did not sign up for. It’s important to have open and honest dialogue about what you both would do if you encounter pregnancy or STIs before you have sex so you are both on the same page and know that your choices are compatible. It’s not just about hurt feelings, it’s about possibly hurt lives.

Take a pregnancy test. ASAP. This will see exactly how much trouble you both are in. If you are pregnant tell your partner and discuss what you both want to do. Keep in mind his feelings as well. Although there’s always a chance for pregnancy, he thought your chance was a lot lower than it was. If you aren’t pregnant, that makes things a little easier but you still have to apologize, explain that you now know what you did was wrong, listen to what he has to say and what his feelings are, and talk about what you both want to do. Do you both want to stay together? What form of birth control will you now use if you want to stay together? What would you both have done had you been pregnant? What about STI risk? You both should go to get tested and get on some sort of birth control or contraceptive you both are comfortable with.

Anonymous asked: Me & my boyfriend had sex 4 days before my period was due without any protection. I'm extremely irresponsible and I thought we would be okay. But my period ended up being 5 days late. Could I be pregnant?

There’s always a chance of pregnancy especially with unprotected sex. In about 3-4 weeks you need to take a pregnancy test and from here on out use some sort of birth control or contraceptive. Stay tuned to FYSE this week, we’re going to be talking a lot about birth control and hopefully it’ll be helpful for people who don’t have a regular method right now.

Anonymous asked: So my boyfriend and I had sex on Jan. 1st. for the very first time. We didn't use a condom but I am on BC & he pulled out. We had sex 4 times since, full protection. I am supposed to be on my period rn & haven't started. I am freaking out! Help!!!

As I say in my pregnancy scare guide, wait until you have fully missed your period and take a pregnancy test just in case. Then take another a week later. If your period is lighter or shorter than usual you still need to take a test. There could be many reasons why you’re late though, so try not to worry!

Anonymous asked: I had sex around or after midnight of the 1st fertile day of my cycle. We used a condom & lubrication was no issue. When he finished, the condom was still intact, from what I could tell (the lights were on). However, it was a cheap brand of condom & I did not check it myself before sex. It is only the morning after the day my period is supposed to start, and I've been having PMS symptoms, but I'm scared I might be pregnant. I haven't had spotting & I'm not on bc, but I'm never late!

If you’re still under 25 your cycle can change randomly so I wouldn’t worry too much. If you do miss your period altogether or it’s lighter or shorter than usual take a pregnancy test just in case.

Anonymous asked: Please help I'm freaking out! I had sex once about 2 weeks ago, and again just on January 3rd. The first time I had sex was about 2 weeks after getting my period start of December. My next period was due January 4th, however my period still hasn't come. We used a condom both times, and he didn't come. But afterwards I gave him a blowjob with me sitting and him standing. I'm worried some of his cum might have dripped on me, even though we were in the shower. Please help!

It’s very doubtful that you got it through oral sex, but the condom may have malfunctioned. Here’s your pregnancy chances using a condom:

• I’m using a condom, I check the expiration date and only use packages that don’t look damaged, I keep it in a cool dry area, I check the air bubble, I make sure to put it on correctly and right side out, I put it on before genitals touch, take it off after ejaculation and use one new condom every time genitals are touching, I make sure there’s enough lubrication and not to use oil based lubes, I check it from time to time to make sure it’s still intact: 2-3% chance of pregnancy
• I’m using a condom, I don’t check the expiration date, I use wrinkled packages that have been in my car, pocket or wallet, I don’t check the condom, I don’t know how to put a condom on, I use two condoms at a time, I keep going after ejaculation, I don’t use a new condom every time, I reuse condoms, I don’t make sure it’s lubricated, I use oil based lubes, or I don’t check it: 15-24% chance of pregnancy

Once it gets to be the 11th if your period still hasn’t come or if it’s shorter or lighter than usual, take a pregnancy test and then take another one a week later. There are many reasons why your period may be late or missed, so try not too worry too much.

Anonymous asked: I gave a guy a handjob a little over two weeks ago. When we were finished hooking up, I went to the bathroom to wash his cum off my hands and I wiped it off of my stomach. Then I went to the washroom. Is there any possible way that i would be pregnant? Because I was suppose to get my period last Monday. I've really been stressing about it so I think that could also be making it really late also.

Your chances of pregnancy are pretty slim. If there hasnt been any ejaculate that has entered into the vagina or been near the vulva the chances are very low. 

Once washing your hands with soap and wiping the ejaculate dry on your stomach, sperm is basically dead. 

There are lots of reasons why you could miss your period or why it is late, stressing out about it can be a contributing factor. If you are very worried, I would suggest taking a pregnancy test, but I really wouldn’t worry too much about.
