Q: I just recently lost my virginity on July 1. I haven't had my period yet, which would make it about 2 weeks late. Some time in late June before I first had sex, my boyfriend and I were messing around. We "dry humped" naked, and I don't think he had any precum at that time. But before that, he had precum but then I gave him a blow job. Then on the night that we had sex, we "dry humped" naked again and I was feeling around to make sure if there was precum or not, and there was, so I made sure it didn't like drip down or anything. Then after that we had sex, but of course we used a condom. He didn't ejaculate while still inside of me, and I checked to make sure the condom didn't break by pouring water into it. And before we started having sex, I stood up to grab the condom and the tip of his penis touched my vagina for a brief second, but I'm not sure if it had precum on it or not.
The main things I am wondering and are worried about are:
- Is it possible to get pregnant if someone gets precum/semen on their hand/fingers and proceeds to finger you?
- Does sperm die when it makes contact with the air?
- Can sperm swim up into the vagina if it touches the outside/opening of the vagina?
- What are the chances of me being pregnant?
Here are some facts about me:
- I'm 18, 5'4", underweight (I weigh about 100 lbs).
- I've only had intercourse once.
- My period is really irregular. They can last for 1-2 weeks. My cycles can range from 15-50 days. I've also had 2 periods in 1 month before.
- My last period arrived on June 1 and ended on June 8.
- I normally don't experience any PMS symptoms, such as cramps.
- My diet has probably not been the best. I don't think I eat enough, and I bet I don't get the proper amount of nutrition and stuff that I need.
- I've been going to the bathroom more, and I know that could be a sign of pregnancy. Though, I've heard that pregnancy symptoms usually don't show up until you're about 6 weeks along. But for my last couple or few periods, I've experienced more urination.
- I think I remember seeing pinkish discharge when I wiped once, and I thought that could be my period. It was a small amount, but I've read that it could be implantation bleeding.
- I am generally a very paranoid person (haha), so I could just be worrying too much and overthinking every small detail.
I know there's probably a chance of being being pregnant, but how high do you think this chance is? This is all making me paranoid and stressing me out. It's probably not helping that I keep googling everything and am reading all these stories either! I just keep thinking of all these scenarios in my head. I know stress, being underweight, and other factors can contribute to a late period. I've also heard that losing your virginity can delay your period but I'm not sure if that's true. My boyfriend said that his ex was 2 weeks late with her period just because she lost her virginity. I've been thinking about taking a pregnancy test to ease my mind, but I'm really scared and nervous! From reading all these stories, I'm just really paranoid about getting a false negative, mistaking spotting/implantation bleeding for my period, being well into a pregnancy but not being aware of it whatsoever, being one of those women who still get their period but are unaware they're pregnant, not having any early pregnancy symptoms, mistaking pregnancy signs as PMS symptoms.... This all is just really stressing me out. It would be nice if someone could inform me on all of this! (And in the future, I will NOT be "dry humping" naked, just to be on the safe side since this is just too much stress for me!)
