Thinks she's pregnant

LegacyUser

I'm 17 and with the gf 8 months, we were having sex the other day and after I came she put her hand on the condom and said she felt cum and started freaking out. I filled up the condom with water to see if it had ripped but it hadn't but now she's freaking out thinking she's pregnant. What to do?

Get a pregnancy test done.

Is she on the pill?

If it was "the other day" it's probably too late to get the morning after pill...but if it was less than 72 hours ago I'd get it. Even if there was some slight leakage there's still only a tiny chance she could be pregnant, but there is a chance, and any chance is worrying enough. Does she think it was the time of the month when she was most likely to get pregnant?

How sure is she it was semen? Could it have just been the Lube on the Condom? or some of her own vaginal secretion.

Relax until you know if she is pregnant!!!

Yip, it was more than likely some of her own stuff, the two can have similar consistencies.

If she's that paranoid about a condom failing maybe she should take the pill as well?

I think you should try not to worry until you know something for sure. Its not doin anyone any good by worrying about all the "what ifs".
Ask your girlfriend to work out the dates of her cycle, she should know roughly what day of her cycle she was in and whether it was around the ovulation day (+/-2).
The best way is to do a test, there are plenty of tests nowadays which are very accurate and should work to relax her mind for a bit. If she misses her next period she could go to her doctor though to be sure, there are also many other reasons for a period to be late/missed and stress such as this can be a leading factor.

i reckon it was a mix of lube on the condom and her own stuff. are you sure the condom was on right though?had it slipped down at all?

Me again.

She's on the pill but says her antibiotics were cancelling it out. Went off it 2 days ago and her period still hasn't came so we're just waiting now.

best bet is a test TBH, if she's gotten herself all worked up then it could delay her period.

How old is she?!

Tell her to take a test right now!!! I cannot stress that enough!

she's on the pill and takin antibiotics and then thinks that the condom leaked or something. Do you always use condoms??

What antibiotics? Most of them are very unlikely to affect the pill.

Please ignore this statement. Pill manufacturers recommend that you use additional protection for 7 days when taking antibiotics or after vomiting/diarrhea.

No point - test is useless until AT LEAST 19 days after unprotected sex.

But if he tested the condom with water and it seemed fine then it probably was.

All she can do is relax and see what happens. Anyway it's a baby not cancer!!!!
