Family Planning Plus

My girlfriend got off her period on the 24th, she has been on her birthcontrol 3 days when we had unprotected sex. we took the plan b pill. she restarted her birthcontrol and the condom broke the next day. only pre-cum got into her. What is the likelihood of her being pregnant?

It is unclear what type of birth control your girlfriend is using. If it is the pill, she needs to be on it seven days before it becomes effective. It was good that she used Plan B the third day when you had unprotected sex. Hopefully, she just kept using her pills (one a day at the same time everyday) even though she also used Plan B.

It’s impossible to give you a percentage regarding how likely it is for her to be pregnant since there are so many factors that impact the chance of pregnancy. Since she just started the pill (if that is the method she is on), she may experience menstrual irregularities for the first few months. She may have spotting or bleeding in between periods and she may entirely miss a period. She can expect her periods to be lighter and shorter in duration. If she doesn’t have any bleeding by her placebo pills of her second pack, she should take a pregnancy test. Good luck!

Me and my bf had unprotected sex. He went inside me. Approximate 6 hours later I took plan b. Two days later we had sex and the condom broke. Could I be pregnant even though I just took plan b two days prior ?

Yes. Plan B is not a long term method of birth control. It helps prevent pregnancy by delaying ovulation. Sperm can survive in the vagina for up to 3 days. If you are delaying ovulation and continue to have unprotected sex, the risk of pregnancy can actually increase. You may want to abstain from sex or use condoms until your next period. Emergency contraceptives may cause to experience some irregular spotting or bleeding during this next cycle. Your next period may be a little earlier or later than usual. It may be a little lighter, heavier or spottier than usual.

If your period is more than 1 week late, perform a pregnancy test, either at home or at a clinic.

We were having sex and when my boyfriend removed the condom he discovered a hole he may have made then or that was there when he came in me. I took the Next Choice morning after pill 12 hours after this. I am due for my period in about 4 days. Could I have prevented pregnancy in time?

Yes. Emergency contraceptives help prevent pregnancy by delaying ovulation. Additionally, if this incident ocurred 4 days prior to your period, this should be the time in your cycle that you are the least fertile.

If your period is more than 1 week late, perform a pregnancy test, either at home or at a clinic.

Me and my girlfriend had sex tuesday of Feb 1st. Prior to sex we were fore playing and I had precum on my penis. I wiped it off and put on a condom. We had sex for 3-5minutes and then the condom popped inside as i was putting my penis inside. We heard it and i pulled out. My girl is on her 14th day on the cycle so she is most fertile.. I touched the inside of the condom to see if there was a lot of precum and it was a little damp. What are the chances of her pregnancy? Please ley me know ASAP cuz we are decising to take plan b or not by tomorrow because it has been 72 hours

If your partner is not taking a long term method of birth control (like pills, shot, patch, etc.), then Plan B would be a good option.

Plan B helps prevent pregnancy by delaying ovulation. It is most effective when taken within 24 hours after unprotected intercourse, but can be effective when taken as long as 120 hours after unprotected sex. It is available over the counter at most pharmacies to women 17 and older. Women under 17 require a prescription. The cost is about $46.

After taking Plan B, your partner may experience some irregular spotting or bleeding until her next period. Her next period may occur a little earlier or later than usual. It may be lighter, heavier or spottier than usual. it should return to normal within a month or two.

If her period is more than 1 week late, perform a pregnancy test, either at home or in a clinic.

im a wednesday girl when it comes to opening a new pack of pills each month. i very good about taking my pill everyday. but last week, not so much. i passed out early last fri after work and forgot to take it. then saturday i packed a bag to go to my friends house, and i kept thinking “i know im forgetting something” ..i was. my birthcontrol. well she dropped me off at my bfs house that night and i stayed at his house til monday afternoon. so i didnt take my pill fri. sat. or sun. and all 3 days he came inside me. when i got home monday i took two pills each day til i caught up. im back on track now. but for those 3 days was the chemicals from the pills still working or not? and did i do the right thing by taking two pills til i caught up? and is my chance of pregnancy high?

If you did not take your pills over the weekend, then you were not protected during that time. Anytime you have unprotected intercourse, there is the risk of pregnancy. Missing that many pills will decrease the effectiveness of the birth control pills. You did the correct thing as far as making up your missed pills.  For the rest of this pill pack, either abstain from sexual activity or use condoms. Begin a new pill pack on time. You may experience some irregular spotting or bleeding throughout the rest of this current pill pack. You period may come a little earlier than usual. Continue to take your pills correctly & consistently, and your cycle should return to normal with a month or two.

If your next period is more than 1 week late, perform a pregnancy test, either at home or at a clinic.

if i have unprotected sex with my pregnant wife and i ejaculate inside her vagina is it possible that she get pregnant again just after giving birth

The general rule is to wait at least 4-6 weeks after giving birth before resuming sexual activity. This gives the mother time to heal and allows the uterus and cervix to return to its non-pregnant state. Waiting also helps prevent post-partum infection and allows the mother’s hormones to return to normal.

The risk of pregnancy depends on how soon ovulation and regular periods return. Breastfeeding women may take several months to have ovulatory cycles, while bottle-feeding women may ovulate soon after hormones return to normal. Therefore, it is possible for a woman to become pregnant within the 6-8 weeks after delivery. If it is too soon for your wife to begin birth control, condoms are an option.

I just started taking birth control 5 days ago. My boyfriend and I had sex using a condom but a little semen leaked out onto the bottom of my vagina (all of it was on the outside, I think), I washed it off immediately. Should I be concerned about pregnancy?

Anytime you have unprotected intercourse or a method failure (condom problem), there is the risk of pregnancy. It takes at least 7 days of consecutive used before the birth control pills are effective.

If the semen did leak only on the outside of your vagina, and you cleaned yourself immediately after, the chance of pregnancy is unlikely. However, it is not impossible, as some semen may have leaked into the vagina.

Continue taking your pills correctly & consistently. If your next period is more that 1 week late, perform a pregnancy test, either at home or in a clinic.

I have been off of the depo shot for about a year now, for the past month or so, my fiancee has been ejaculating inside me, I do believe I started my period today, it is slightly lighter then normal, am I fertile? Could I be pregnant?

Once you stopped receiving the Depo injections, consider yourself fertile. After discontinuing the Depo shot, it may take one to twelve months for your period to return on a regular monthly basis. Periods may be irregular at first. They may be heavy or light. Keep in mind that you ovulate before you have a bleed. Therefore, you could become pregnant without having a period.

Once your periods return on a monthly basis, it will be easier to keep track of your cycle. By using the rhythm method (natural family planning), you’ll be able to anticipate the times when you are fertile. For more info on keeping track of your cycles, you can go to www.plannedparenthood.org and read about fertility awareness based methods.

hii..is it possible to get pregnant without penetration?he did not cum inside my vagina but on the clit and i cleaned it immediately.what are the chances?i have been expeiencing abdominal pain from 1 day

It is highly unlikely to become pregnant without penetration. The semen needs to be deposited inside the vagina.  Also, since you cleaned yourself immediately afterwards, it is unlikely that any semen would have remained to enter the vagina.

How likely is it that a girl can get pregnant if she has sex and later on that same day she starts her period and it goes on for 5 days? Please answer a.s.a.p thank u very much

If you had sex on the day your period began, it is unlikely that you would become pregnant.
