Anytime you have unprotected sex, pregnancy is possible. The risk is increased if you have sex near the time of ovulation.
If you do not wish to be pregnant and if it has been less than five days since the intercourse, you could use Plan B to reduce your risk.
Plan B One-step is a pill you can take after unprotected sex to reduce the risk of pregnancy. It works best if it is used within the first 24 hours after sex but can be used up to 120 hours (or five days) after unprotected sex with decreased effects after the first three days. The sooner you use Plan B, the more effective it is.
Plan B works by delaying ovulation (the monthly release of an egg), and possibly by interfering with fertilization (the union of sperm and egg) and implantation (when the fertilized egg implants itself into the uterine lining). If you are already pregnant, it will not terminate the pregnancy. According to the manufacturer, the treatment prevents seven of eight pregnancies that otherwise would have occurred.
If you are 17 or older, you can purchase Plan B at most…

Comments Off on Hi well I just started lutera birth control and this is currently my 5th day on lutera. On my 5th day I had unprotected sex but he didn’t come inside me I was wondering if I could get pregnant? Should I worry? Btw I didn’t start the pill while on my period.
Yes, pregnancy is possible but your risk is low. Do not stop taking your pills. When you open your next pack of pills, take a pregnancy test. Use first morning urine for the best results. If it is negative, repeat the test two weeks later just to be on the safe side. Do not stop taking your birth control pills unless you test positive for pregnancy. In the meantime, please use condoms in addition to your birth control pills until you have been on the pill for at least two weeks straight.

Comments Off on what will happen if i have unprotected sex and take a infection pill after will it stop me from getting a std
No. There are only certain medications that cure certain STDs. Taking one antibiotic pill will not prevent you from getting an STD if you are exposed to one.

Comments Off on What if I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend while on my period and he nutted, an hour later i took plan B but then a few days later I began releasing heavy bloodclots. I took a pregnancy test but it came out negative. However, I am still bleeding on the third day and I am feeling super sleepy all of the time now.
Irregular bleeding is one of the most common side effects of Plan B. However, if you are experiencing bleeding that is heavier than your normal period, you may want to contact a medical provider for evaluation (especially if your bleeding continues for longer than a week).

Comments Off on I had sex while being treated for Chlamydia (on the third day of treatment) is it possible that he isnt infected?
It’s possible, but you still need to report it to the provider who is treating you. Your partner may have been infected since your treatment may not have cured the infection yet. He should be tested and presumptively treated just in case.

Comments Off on My last period was april 25th – 27th…I had been on the same birth control for over a year at that point. On May 12 (a Saturday), I had sex with my boyfriend and he came inside me. We didn’t use a condom and were just depending on my birth control. I started a brand new kind of birth control that Sunday (May 13)…I have been getting these awful dizzy spells and have been feeling really nauseous…I can’t tell if it’s just my new birth control (Lutera) or if it’s the possibility I could be pregnant??? The dizziness and nausea are not major side effects of Lutera, so I’m not sure…Could I be pregnant?
As long as there was no gap of time between your old birth control pill and your new one, and as long as you didn’t miss any pills by more than 24 hours, pregnancy is highly unlikely. More than likely, your symptoms are being caused by the change in hormones. The only way to know for sure, however, is to take a pregnancy test. Contact the provider who prescribed your new pill and report your symptoms. They can help you manage your side effects, and if necessary, may want to change your pill. It is especially important to report any of the following warning signs (symptoms that could mean you are experiencing a more serious problem):
Abdominal pain (severe)
Chest Pain (severe), cough, shortness of breath
Headache (severe) with blurred vision, weakness, difficulty speaking
Eye problems-vision loss or blurring
Leg Pain (severe)
If you have anyof the above symptoms, it may or may not be related to the pill. However, it is necessary to report them to your provider.

Comments Off on Can you tell if u have a std in 48 hours
It depends on the STD. It can take less than 48 hours for individuals to show symptoms of pubic lice. Usually, though, it takes a bit longer than 48 hours for most other STDs. If you are experiencing symptoms though, you really ought to be evaluated by a medical practitioner. You may be experiencing an unrelated medical problem.
Please keep in mind that some STDs (like HIV) have no initial symptoms. What’s more, you have to wait at least three months after possible exposure to be tested. When you are tested for HIV, the test does not look for the virus itself. Instead, it looks for HIV-specific antibodies. It takes your body 6-12 weeks to develop these antibodies.
Because many STDs have no initial symptoms, it is a good idea for all sexually active individuals to be tested regularly (at least annually).
When symptoms are present, they are more likely to be present in men than in women. STD-related symptoms include:
Painful urination, a frequent urge to urinate; pain during sexual intercourse and/or dull pelvic pain (for females), pain while ejaculating and/or scrotal pain (for males).
Discharge from…

Comments Off on my girl n i had sex wit a condom on da 14 her period came on on the 18 for 3 days a week later she threw up n has ben sick does it mean she is pregnant? she was on pills earlier in the month then stopped.
Not necessarily. She definitely was not protected by the pill if she had stopped using it prior to the intercourse. However, as long as you used the condom correctly, as long as there was no penis-vagina contact without a condom, and as long as the condom was intact when you withdrew, pregnancy is highly unlikely. It is even more unlikely since your girlfriend had three days of bleeding after the intercourse. Her nausea and vomiting may simply be a stomach virus.
Unfortunately, the only way to know for sure is to take a pregnancy test. Your girlfriend should use first morning urine for the best results. If it is negative, have her repeat the test every two weeks until she has a normal period or a positive result.
In the meantime, please continue to use condoms. Condoms work best when they are used correctly and consistently. Here are some tips for correct condom use.
Always check the expiration date to be sure it is not expired prior to use.
Condoms should be stored at room temperature in a sharps free environment.
Never use an oil-based lubricant with…

Comments Off on Me and my boyfriend have been trying to have a baby. We’ve been having sex for over two months already. We basically did it everyday once or twice and I still dont understand how I can’t get pregnant. I’ve also had sex during my period and nothing. How can this be possible? I had also tried during my “14th” day and nothing.
Sometimes it can take several months to become pregnant. On average, it can to 6 to 9 months for conception to occur.
In the meantime, research information about fertility awareness. You will find helpful information about keeping track of your periods and determining your fertile time. You may want to begin charting your morning temperature and observing your cervical mucus.
If you do not achieve pregnancy after at least 1 year of trying, you may want to consider making an appointment with an ob/gyn doctor who specializes in fertility.

Comments Off on I have just got done doing treatments for a yeast infection almost a week ago, today I was suppose to start my period but havent. Could I prego? I had sex twice once when I had just started my treatment then next after my treatment. Im on birth control pills tho. Just wondering cause my periods are very regular.
Yeast medications usually do not decrease the effectiveness of your birth control pills. Additionally, as long as you have been taking your pills correctly & consistently, you should not become pregnant. Sometimes, infections/illnesses can cause your cycle to be irregular.
Continue taking your pills every day. If you are concerned about pregnancy, do a pregnancy test.
