I had unprotected sex...is pregnancy a possibility?

Question

Okay, so the other night, I hooked up with this guy. And just 2 days before that I lost my virginity. So he was my second. And well, the first guy used a condom. But the second guy didnt. And Im not on birth control. Im only 16, I started my period when I was 14, but its always been really irregular. Like, I have only had maybe 7 periods in the 2 years. And my last one was like... 4 months ago, ish. Im not sure. But yeah, judging from that, theres no way I can be pregnant right? I mean I only had sex a couple days ago so I know its too early to show symptoms and stuff... any help from medical professionals, or anyone who knows stuff on this subject would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Answer 1

Any unprotected sex carries with it the possibility of becoming pregnant. If your periods are irregular normally, then you are correct that it would be tricky to determine when you do get pregnant, and you likely would be unable to tell this early. However, I would suggest you consider getting checked in a couple weeks.

If you are really serious about continuing to be sexually active and avoiding pregnancy, then I would strongly suggest you use contraception every time you are with a guy. And don't fall for that "It's ok, I'll pull out beforehand" nonsense, as that doesn't work either.

I would suggest you either get condoms for yourself to give guys who aren't responsible enough to carry them (which will also protect you from STD's, since it sounds like you're not monogamous right now); or you consider starting a hormonal contraceptive, such as the pill, the patch, the ring, or Depo. There is likely to be a Planned Parenthood clinic or something similar nearby that can help counsel you about what the right decisions might be for you.

Answer 2

There is a definite possibility that you can be pregnant, although that's only a possibility. You should take a pregnancy test in 2 weeks, and if it is negative, you should take it again a week later. If you don't get your period soon after, you should see your doctor. Just so you know, any time you have sex without a condom there is a possibility that you will get pregnant. Don't have sex without a condom until you want to get pregnant, or at least get yourself on a birth control pill. Finally, don't have sex with guys who you are not in a serious relationship with. Also, you should protect yourself from STD's, which more people have than you realize... even kids your age.

Answer 3

Any time you have sex you have a chance of tgetting pregnant.

Yes, even with irregular periods you can get pregnant. You can still ovulate. If you ovulate, you've released an egg that can be fertilized by the sperm.

If you plan on staying sexually active, get on birth control. Talk to your mom, or another trusted female adult and have her take you to the doctor. If you absolutely can't do that, look up the phone number and address to planned parenthood and they will get you on birth control confidentially and at a very low cost.

Just remember, no method of birth control works 100 % of the time.. so even if you get on the pill, use a condom. (I got pregnant at 16 and 19 while taking the pill, and using it correctly.. I miscarried both times though.)

And don't forget that birth control does NOT protect against STD's... and there are some really scary ones out there.. so.. just be careful!

Answer 4

My period's really irregular too. i'll go a month and a half without getting it and im still a virgin. But anytime when you have unprotected sex, getting pregnant or getting an STD is a risk. If your last period was more than 4 months ago than how will you know if your periods " irregular" or just late because your pregnant? I know you probably dont wanna hear this but, i would go to your doctor and tell her your worried. Doctor's arent there to judge and nobody even has to know why your there, not even your parents if you tell the doctor not to tell them. Hope i helped and Good luck! : )

Answer 5

There's always the possiblity of pregnancy anytime you have intercourse without the benefit of a condom or BCP's. Too, you had sex too soon after losing your virginity, so I imagine you are pretty sore right now; your vagina needs to heal. Don't spread yourself too thin ('hook up' with too many guys) because they will tell others to come to you and this will make you look bad. I only say this to protect you, not be mean. Guys shouldn't make a big deal with their buddies, but they do, and it is embarrasing for a woman.

There may be several factors as to why your periods are irregular. You need to go see an OB/GYN so he/she can determine why this is happening and possibly recommend something (BCP's most likely) to regulate your periods. But, make sure you aren't pregnant first.

Answer 6

You are so very wrong. Period or not, it is ENTIRELY possible for you to become pregnant, you are fertile and having unprotected sex. My urgent advice to you is to go to the doctor and tell him or her what happened, and see if you can get the "morning after" pill. If not, you may find yourself with a baby 9 months from now.

On another note, do you know how dangerous it is to "hook up" and have unprotected sex? I don't care if you knew the guy, or how old he was, having unprotected sex with ANYONE can result in you having an STD, anything from syphilis to HIV. Simply put, unprotected sex can kill you.

Sweetie, I know you don't want to hear this, but you are too young and uninformed to be sexually active. You need to educate yourself before you have sex, and you need to be mature enough to make sensible decisions as to when and with whom.

So, my advice to you is to go to the doctor, get checked out for pregnancy and STDs, and to stop this until you're older.

first of all sex is a tie to some one wether you do it as a fling or a in a relationship you tie your self to them for like ever! the have a peice of you for ever! if you just lost it a couple of days ago and now your on to the next magic stick...you can and will come off as easy and guys like virgins....or the rall assholes do..just to hit and quit! dont allow your self to be protrayed as a hoe or a slut! your barly started doing it! god....pregnant is always"ALWAYS" a possiblitiy when there is no form of protection...but your on the pill...so doubt it....what i'm worried about now is that you just started playing the love game and your new at this do you really want to chatch something and look like a slut when he was only your 2nd? looking like a how would be the last of your worries....you cn catch a STD....and then what...for sure most men arn't willing to lay with you. You'll be conciderd unclean. Dont do this to your self...sex is fun i love it but i have had it with the same man for 5yrs...and we still use protection when we have sex! look if your doing to be humping like a rabbit...use a condom...even if you have to be the one to carry then...better safe than sorry

Answer 8

Even if you aren't menstruating, you could still be ovulating, which means you could still become pregnant just as easily. If it's been less than 72 hours since you had unprotected sex, go to a pharmacy immediately to get emergency contraception. If it has been longer than that, be patient and in three weeks from the time you had unprotected sex you can start taking pregnancy tests to see if you're pregnant or not.

If you don't know these things for yourself and they result in you doing something extremely stupid like having unprotected sex, I highly suggest that you refrain from ALL sexual activity until you know how and when to properly protect yourself. Sex is an adult activity, and if you can't be responsible enough to protect yourself (age is not an issue here), you should not have sex, ever, at all, ever again, etc.

Answer 9

sorry to sound so preachy, but you kinda earned it...
are you really that dense??? YES you can get pregnant!! you could be pregnant at this very moment....girl, you need to use your head before you end up in some situation where you really DON'T want to be.

Sex, is really not all it's cracked up to be. Save it for someone who really loves you and who you love, not some guy whose just gonna USE you.

Believe me, it's NOT easy being a single mother. i've been there. BE RESPONSIBLE. if you choose to spread your legs for some JERK, then YOU make sure he wears a condom.

belive me, that's the last thing on a guys mind. it's your body, YOU are responsible for it, if you get pregnant or end up w/ a Sexually Transmitten Disease.

Think about it.

Answer 10

You had sex with 2 different men in two days and you just lost your virginity? Of course you can get pregnant and if you keep up the way you are right now chances are you will get pregnant soon if you aren't already. If you cant keep your legs closed you should at least go on the pill.
