So...What if I'm Pregnant?

If this thought is crossing your mind you are probably terrified, angry, sad, and unsure of what to do. take a deep breath...think about what happened.

  1. Did you have intercourse? (vaginal penetration with a penis)
  2. What sort of risky behavior did you engage in?
  3. Did you use protection?
  4. Did he ejaculate?
  5. Have you missed a period?
Early Symptoms: missed period/ light period, breast tenderness, back pain, nausea, implantation bleeding (light spotting-very rare), darkening of area around breast, tiredness, and headaches.

Keep this in mind: sometimes emotional stress can manifest itself as physical ailments. Stress could cause a missed period/altered cycle, tiredness, and headaches.

Up for debate: does Pre-Ejaculatory fluid contain sperm?
In the "Journal of Assisted Reproduction Genetics, 2003 Apr;20(4):157-9. Zukerman asked "Does preejaculatory penile secretion originating from Cowper's gland contain sperm?" "Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Rabin Medical Center, Petah Tikva, Israel."
Their conclusion was "Preejaculatory fluid secreted at the tip of the urethra from Cowper's gland during sexual stimulation did not contain sperm and therefore cannot be responsible for pregnancies during coitus interruptus." You can't be more definitive than that.
Precum does not contain sperm UNLESS there was a previous ejaculation, then the sperm comes from semen still in the urethra.

Get tested: Over the counter pregnancy tests are available (First Response, ept etc) that can tell you up to 4 days before a missed period but are only 99% accurate on the day of a missed period or after. Blood tests are also available from health clinics about 2 weeks after conception.

If you are pregnant: Welcome to the adult world...it is time to take responsibility for you adult decision. Here are your options: Ru-486 (abortion pill, 95% effective), abortion, adoption (open or closed), and having a child. Talk to your parents.
