Pregnant while having sex on my period?

[mansizerooster.livejournal.com]

hello!

so, my periods are very light. they only last about two and a half days. the first day it is really heavy then the next day its very light and the the third day its hardly there at all.

my boyfriend and i decided to have sex on the second day of my period, where there was SOME blood, but it was not very gross.

for some stupid reason i thought it was impossible to get pregnant while on your period, so he came twice inside of me (the first time anyones ever done that to me).

i also took plan b the next day--but i am FREAKING OUT. when should i get a pregnancy test? also, i have an appt for birth control tomorrow.


gahh im freaking. thank you SO MUCH in advance.

Let's review the facts:

1. You had unprotected sex on Day 2 of your cycle. That time is usually a less fertile time in your cycle, since it's not usually the time you would be ovulating. So it's not likely that you had ovulated and had an egg sitting there ready to be fertilized when you had sex.

2. Sperm can live from 1-5 days in your body, so you'd have to ovulate within that time for the sperm to have anything to fertilize.

3. You took Plan B the day after unprotected sex, well within the 72 hour window of Plan B effectiveness (which was exactly the right way to take it). Plan B prevents you from ovulating, so even if your body was getting ready to ovulate, Plan B should have stopped it. That means it's highly unlikely that you will ovulate within the time that the sperm are still alive.

1-3 all add up to "You're most likely not pregnant."

If you miss your next period, that's when I would take a test. When you go to your appointment to get birth control, you can ask the doctor how early you could test for pregnancy -- they should be able to give you more details.
