I'm terrified!

LegacyUser

I was out at the weekend and ended up with a fella back at the house. We had unprotected sex only for literally less than a minute before I pushed him off. I know the chances of pregnancy are slim but I'm terrified. Has anyone been through something similar?

I know nobody can tell me if im pregnant or not but I guess I don't have anyone to tell about this and just wanted someplace to talk about it.

Why don't you get the morning after pill ?

It Monday OP go to boots and get the morning after pill better be safe than sorry, also learn a lesson and make sure your on the pill and get them to put something on the end of it next time

Stop stressing and take action as lack of action may change your life forever xx

I would also advise a possible trip to the STD clinic...

No that is not true, its rare but the pull out method has been proven to be ineffective as a reliable form of contraceptive, OP chances are slim to none but if it means peace of mind I would take the pill personally if I was in a relationship and that happened I wouldn't be freaking out because the risk is so low I wouldnt be freaking out in yours either but if you take the pill tomorrow morning it just seems better to be on the side of caution rather than this messing with your head all month

Exact same thing has happened to me, don't feel too bad!

I'm not sure how likely it is that you could get pregnant, but it is possible. Depending on where you are in your cycle or whatever, there is definitely some risk of pre-ejaculate getting you pregnant.

You should get the morning after pill. It's cheaper in Unicare (I think €15) than Boots (€45 I think). It covers you for up to 72 hours (though the longer you wait, the less effective it becomes).
I'd advise you to get it, if only for your own peace of mind! The guy I was with tried to discourage me from getting it saying "oh you'll be fine", but I would have been freaking out about it. Also, think about getting an STI check. You have no idea what the guy could be harbouring!!

That's completely untrue.

OP
You have been given all the physical advice, but did you consent to what happened. Did you just realise your mistake and that's why you pushed him off, or did you HAVE to push him off.

If you have gotten a fright because what started out as a little fun turned more serious than you were wanting, then I feel for you and can only say not to put yourself in the position again.

There are far worse things than pregnancy, unwanted or otherwise, STDs, feeling as you do now or eventually, having fun with a guy who may not be as easy to push off.

I could be wrong, and I hope I am. Please do be careful, safe sex includes protecting yourself from rape and/or assault.

OP, read up on this here

This happened early on sunday morning so would it still work if I got it tomorrow? I don't know if I have transport to a phamacy! I already have a child who I would have to bring with me so I'm afriad of being judged. This is not something I would ever normally do. That tiny chance of pregnancy is going to scare me for tghe next two weeks, when my period is due.

Completely untrue.

Pardon my french, but f_ck anyone who judges you. If a little embarresment is somehow worse to you than the possibility of being pregnant, then you need to adjust your pritorities.

Hi OP. There is a newer morning after pill that works for up to five days later, dunno if you are aware of it. And it is said to be far more effective than the older morning after pill. It's called EllaOne.

Hope it works out for you.

Yikes OP,
If you're due in two weeks and have a regular 28-30 day cycle, get thee to a pharmacy now, you can up all kinds of excuses to get there, no one has to know the truth but you and the pharmacist.
I work in this area, you will not be judged, the pharmacist doesn't care, s/he just wants to sell it to you under the right guidelines so will have to take some information.

When you go into the chemist, just ask the person out front to speak to the pharmacist, they will not care what you want the pharmacist for...trust me.

I don't entirely see why they need to come up with an excuse. I'm sure the pharmacist has heard it all, so if I think you might be better off being honest with them. That's my own opinion though. Also as others have said, you should probably get an STD check done, just to be on the safe side. If you do it through a clinic at a hospital, it should be free (Obviously I cannot say for sure, so you're better off checking with them to be sure)

Check out this thread here for a list of clinics around the country and see the one closest to you.

Don't be afraid of being judged! They see it ALL the time, and the fact you have a kid doesn't make the slightest bit of difference. I mean, for all they know, you could be in a long-term relationship, your contraception could have failed, etc. There are a million reasons why you could be getting the MAP. It doesn't even matter anyway. Seriously, they won't think twice about why you're getting it or even care. Hopefully you've gotten it already!

Well I went to boots and got the morning after pill! Even though it was expensive at 45 euro I feel it was totally worth it. I feel really relieved now!

Just to the poster who asked if I was pushed into the situation, I wasn't. He's a nice guy but just not really my type. It was just a moment of madness on my part!

Just want to say a big thank you to everyone who replied to this thread. You all gave the push I needed to make the intelligent choice. I'm glad I did it and I can put my mind at ease now. Better safe than sorry, no matter how slim the chance of pregnancy.

I meant coming up with an excuse to get someone to drive her to the chemist.:)

You have to be straight with the pharmacist. Anyway, times ticking.

Op, I was in your position a few months ago - well, it was my bf but it was literally two seconds - but i ended up pregnant because I didn't get the morning after pill, thinking theres no way I could be pregnant.
Don't take ANY chances.

You are either very lucky (so far) or have fertility issues so.

Precum, that little clear liquid that is on the tip of the penis when aroused is packed full of sperm. The sperm does not actually travel to the fallopian tubes through the ejaculate of the male, its the female secretions at the time that help it on its way, so you dont need to ejaculate to place sperm in the fertile cervical fluid to travel to the egg. Just precum.

Glad you got useful advice...as you no longer require advice, I'll lock this thread.

All the very best. :cool:
