most likely time to get pregnant?

[li-ber-ate.livejournal.com]

Wow. So last night I went to a party and got ridiculously drunk, and slept with someone. It was my first time, and no, I don't regret it. I don't really look at sex as that big of a deal, but I do have a question about it. The guy was very nice, and I made sure he wore a condom. So we get started, and then I lost track of time, but I check, and the condom is gone. So I tell him, and then he puts another one on. What I'm most worried about is whether or not I'm likely to get pregnant. Neither of us came, perhaps because we were both too drunk, or it just wasn't happening since I was a virgin, so I know there was no actual semen inside of me. I do know that you can still get pregnant from the secretions or whatever and I also am worried that perhaps I was too drunk to notice if he did, in fact, ejaculate.

I just got off period about two days ago and am worried what the likelihood of me getting pregnant is?


sorry for this post being kind of here and there and not well thought out, but I'm still a little wobbly. I just wanted to know about this so I can be sure, or if I should do something.



well.
thank you!

Pregancy test time, in my opinion. Good luck.

[li-ber-ate.livejournal.com]

but when is the earliest i can take it? doesnt it not show up for a few months on a stick test?

[lupie-stardust.livejournal.com]

You can take one whenever, I thought. I've got pregnancy testerated many a time (because I am paranoid about babies) sometimes about a day after having a worry, and it's all been negative and I'm not popping any sprogs.

Stick tests won't pick up pregnancy the day after having sex. It takes time for the hormones to build up in your body.

Oh! Goodness. Well, fortune has it that I had another small fear a couple of months afterwards, and that came out clear, too. :/

Yeah, they usually say that a test won't be reliable until you've missed your next period. Even then, if the unprotected...ness had been fairly soon before my period was due, I'd want to take another one a couple of weeks later.

Generally about 14 days after sex is the absolute earliest. However each women is a little diff and it can take diff amounts of time. Wait until you are due for your next period and if you are late test.

Get plan b if you can, and get tested for STIs (just in case).

where can i go about getting plan b? do i have to ask the pharmacist for it wherever i get it from?

[jennifer0246.livejournal.com]

In the US, you can buy it at any pharmacy that stocks it without a prescription, as long as you're 18 or over (or can find someone over 18 to buy it for you).

Whys is that? Here, to the best of my knowledge, we just have to rock up to family planning and say "Please."

[jennifer0246.livejournal.com]

sure, you can go to family planning, or a clinic, or wherever. but those places typically have less hours than a pharmacy or drug store, so to be able to go into a drug store at 8pm on a friday is generally easier and faster. EC is time-sensitive, the sooner the better.

Yes. As long as you're 18 you don't need a prescription, you just have to show your ID and ask for it. Not all places carry it, but I do know that Kroger has vowed that all of their stores will have it, if you have a Kroger by you. You can take Plan B up to 120 hours after sex, but the sooner you take it the more effective it will be.

You can START taking pregnancy tests TWO WEEKS after sex; it's likely if you were pregnant it's show up at the two-week mark or a bit later.

I highly, highly doubt that you're pregnant b/c your period just ended, but if you have short cycles (or even if this cycle happens to be a fluke short cycle) it IS possible to get pregnant on or just after your period. For _most_ women ovulation happens about 2 weeks after their period started.

I'd take emergency contraception if I were you, just in case he came & you didn't notice. If you had been sober and knew for SURE that he didn't come, the risk of pregnancy is so low that I personally wouldnt' take EC, but that's just me.
