Family Planning Plus

I had unprotected sex a little over three months ago. I immediately took plan b the next day and then a few weeks later had a light period, but it was not like my periods normally are. I have always been irregular, but I have yet to have any period since that day and have had many pregnancy symptoms, enough that I took two pregnancy tests, both were negative. I am approaching the fourth month of not having a period and am very concerned. Is pregnancy still a possibility?

If you are pregnant, your test should have yeilded a positive result by now. It is possible that you may have had some faulty tests or that you performed the test incorrectly or read the result wrong. Urine pregnancy tests measure hCg. In some women, the hormone does not build up enough to register on a urine pregnancy test, and blood testing is needed.

You mentioned that your periods are irregular. It is also possible that you are simply experiencing more of this irregularity. Since it has been almost four months since your last period, it is probably time to be evaluated by a medical professional. Contact your regular medical care provider for an appointment.

About three weeks ago, and a month or so before that, my boyfriend put his penis in me about a quarter of an inch for a few seconds. My stomach suddenly started to get noticeably big within the last two weeks. I was on a long vacation from school and honestly didn’t do much of anything for the whole vacation which means I could have just gained the weight. I had my period on time, about four days later, and I haven’t had any type of symptoms at all. I had a ten minute sharp pain in the right side of my abdomen one day, but it went away then (I do have bowel problems) and I didn’t have any spotting or pain after that. I am on Orthotricyclen, and missed one blue pill four days before the first day time we had done this act. I have had no other symptoms whatsoever, no cravings, breast tenderness, moodiness, fatigue or nausea. I’m eighteen years old and I’ve been taking the pill for almost six months. what are the chances that I’m pregnant??

If you have been having normal periods, pregnancy is highly unlikely. The pill is a very effective method of birth control. When you miss a pill, just be sure to make it up correctly. Take it as soon as you remember and then take your next pill at the regular time.

More than likely you have experienced some weight gain due to inactivity. You may also be experiencing some bloating. If you miss a period, take a pregnancy test, but again, pregnancy is not likely in your case.

i was tested and treated for a std….i had small intercourse on the 6th day. is there a chance im still infected andhave the std still ?

Yes, there is still a chance that you may have been infected and may have transmitted the infection to your partner.  The medication usually cures the infection within five days of completing the treatment, but in some individuals it may take longer. That is why we tell people to wait a full seven days after treatment before having sex. Contact the medical provider that treated you. They may want to screen and treat your partner, and may have further instruction for you.

my boyfriend and i have had sex 4-5 times now, with a condom, but im not on birth control. im a few days late on my period, am i pregnant?

Pregnancy is unlikely if you used condoms consistently and correctly. However, even when used perfectly, condoms can fail. Condoms are more liekly to fail when they are used incorrectly.

There are many different factors that can affect menstrual cycles. Increased stress, illness, a change in weight, exercise or diet, and new medications can all cause changes in the menstrual cycle.

Wait another week. If you still don’t get your period, take a pregnancy test. Repeat the test every two weeks until you have a normal period or get a positive result.

If you are interested in starting a hormonal method of birth control or would like more information on correct condom use, please contact one of our offices for an appointment.

i came on my period during the middle of sex what does that means?

It probably just means that you got your period during sex. If the sex was rougher than usual, it may have caused a little bleeding, but it was most likely coincidental that the bleeding began while you were engaging in sex.

i had my period on jan 9 and had unprotected sex on Jan 23 and he ejaculated inside of me also after we had sex i wiped myself and there was alittle blood. Does that mean i could be pregnant

The presence of blood just after intercourse has no bearng on your risk of pregnancy, However, since you had unprotected intercourse, pregnancy is possible. If something like this should happen again, you can use Plan B (the morning after pill) to reduce your risk of pregnancy. Plan B should be used within 72 hhours of unprotected sex, and is available at most drug stores without a prescription for women 17 or older.

If you skip your next period, take a pregnancy test. Repeat the test every two weeks until you have a normal period or get a positive result. In the meantime, if you do not wish to become pregnant, please use a method of birth control.

Free condoms are available at all of our offices. If you would like to discuss all of your contraceptive options, please make an appointment at one of our clinics. Family Planning Plus offers reproductive health exams (pap tests and breast exams), sexually transmitted disease testing, pregnancy testing, and birth control information and supplies. Fees for services are based on household size and income. Many…

me and my boyfriend had sex lastnight and didnt wait the whole 7 days til after the treatment now what ?

Contact the medical provider who trated you for further instruction.

can you get pregnant from being fingered? he touched himself, did not ejaculate then fingered me. If he had precum on his finger could I get pregnant?

You cannot get pregnant from being fingered. The amount of pre-ejaculatory fluid on his finger was most likely very small, and the likelihood that sperm would live on his finger is low. Sperm are more likely to survive in a warm, moist environment, like the vagina.

my boyfriend ejaculated in me on my period and now its lighter?

Having your boyfriend ejaculate inside of you during your period should not affect your period. You may notice your bleeding is thinner, lighter in color or has more mucus in it after intercourse. Semen mixed with menstrual fluid will cause these changes for a day or two.

If you and your partner are having unprotected intercourse (assuming you’re not on a long term method of birth control), you are at risk for pregnancy.  Theoretically, you should be least fertile during your period. However, if a woman has short cycles, she may ovulate early, while still having period bleeding.

If you’re interested in starting a long term method of birth control (like the pill, shot, patch, etc.), Family Planning clinics offer gynecological exams and birth control a little to no cost, depending on household size & income. Please call to schedule an appointment.
