In early Sept. I was with this guy, and although no sexual intercourse took place, I fear some of his bodily liquids might have come in contact with me. I had my period 3 days after this experience, and since then, believe me, I have been stressing like crazy. I had my periods 4 times in total since then, and although some were a couple days late, they all lated from 4-5 days, while my last one lasted like 6 days. Why do I feel as if I am pregnant? The constant fear and guilt has seriously driven me to a point of no return. I feel so bad for what I did, and understand I was in the wrong. Please do not lecture me on "safe sex" because this guilt has been the worst punishment of all for me. I come froma really strict family so I can't just go out and buy a HPT.....I don't know, I'm just so scared.
My period is due in 5 days, and I feel all the PMS symptoms. My question is, do you think there is ANY chance I am pregnant? If so, would I be showing by now? I am 115 lbs 5'6" if that helps.

Hey take it easy, your not PG and if it would help get a PG tester and see. If you didn't have sex that you can't be PG even if his stuff got on you. Relax

theres only a slim chance that you are pregnant as it can only happen through sexual intercourse which you say didnt happen. Mens 'bodily liquid' can only survive in the air (or for example bath water.. pool water.. etc) for limited time an before you konw it, is dead - yet it is true they can last for days in the womens organs without them realising (hence not to rely on the calendar as contraception.
I know what you mean though with the guilt etc. First time i had sex we used a condom which didnt break at all, and i had just started the pill, yet i felt like i had done the wrong thing. my family are all christians and hold tihs very strongly in our living. Because of the guilt i i made myself believe that through all that, I WAS PREGANT even though i knew it was impossible. i was worried and a stressed out wreck for weeks until i made myself go off the pill just to prove to myself and have a period. i was goin to by a HPT but wussed out too as i live in a small town where everyone knows everyone.
its okay. if you feel really worried go see a doctor,e verything is confidential (if your over 16 - australia). Im pretty sure by what youve said though that youre not since you have had regular periods since. yes its true some women still get periods while pregnant but this isnt very common.

You are definitely not pregnant. If you've had your period 4 times and they all lasted 4 - 5 days, then you have nothing to worry about. Don't stress. That could make your period late. I hope that makes you feel better. I've felt the same way sometimes. The guilt can do that to you. Don't worry. You're period will come. You can relax.
Smile. It will make you feel better.

You worrying sooooo much could actually give you pregnancy symptoms!! The only way you are gonna feel better is get a HPT. Even though you come from a strict family find some way to take one since it sounds like it's the only way you're going to feel better. Even dollar stores have them and I've heard they're acurate if you're worried about cost. Relax!

Sweetie, Calm down! You are driving yourself crazy with guilt. You didn't have sex and unless his "liquids" some how got into your vagina, you are okay. You have gotten your period several times since then and you feel like you are going to get it again.
If you were my friend, I'd buy you a test just to ease your mind but believe me you don't need it.
I think it's your guilt eating away at you. Please try to calm down. You messed around with a guy. You can't change that fact but you can't let it stress you out.

You are not pregnant, but all the stress is messing up your periods, if it would make you feel better, go get a HPT, and use it in a public restroom, it only takes a minute and you would stop, feeling so anxious, also please quit beating yourself up emotionally, we have all made a mistake, learn from it, and move on.

two thing yes sperm can move on their own but it is not possible for them to move up the vagina unless intercourse takes place and two no women have their period while pregnant because the lining of the uterus cant be shed because it supplies the baby with essential nutrients to help it develop

you've got yourself all stressed out and your cycle is now a mess because of the stress, if a pregnancy test says no, which I'm sure it will. rest you little head and enjoy life again

It certainly doesnt sound like you are pregnant. I think the guilt is eating you alive. You just need to forgive yourself and move on.
