i had unprotected sex on the 16th. i'm due for my period on the 5th. we pulled out before he was even close to cumming. but i think precum might have gotten in there. do you think i might be pregnant? so far the symptoms i have are sore breats, headaches, tired. (which could be from my period, but its not due for ten days) but i also have like a runny/stuffy nose and achey too. what's your opinion?

- don't stress about being pregnant, UNTIL you miss your period. when you're worried about pregnancy you are going to notice way more aches & pains than you normally would. & stressing too much can cause a false pregnancy, which means you basically convince your body that you are pregnant, and you'll miss your period, your boobs will grow, your stomach will swell & your boobs will even lactate (produce milk).
- every period runs about 20-27 days, some people have theirs later & some earlier. within those days, the first 2 weeks before your period, you are more fertile. so if you had sex 2 weeks before your period, there is a chance you could get pregnant.
but if it was 2 weeks after your last period, then you are less fertile & less likely to get pregnant. but that theory isn't always guaranteed. you still had unprotected sex & you still could get pregnant no matter what actions were taken.
your runny nose & such doesn't have anything to do with pregnancy symptoms, don't even worry about that.
but if you miss your period by 2 weeks, then you should take a pregnancy test.
don't freak out if it's been 2 days & your period hasn't started, because you'll worry yourself sick.
just breathe, relax(even though it's hard - i know, i've been there) & next time please, please, pleaaaaaase use a condom
:) hope i helped. [ karisue's advice column | Ask karisue A Question ]
Solcito answered Tuesday May 27 2008, 3:06 am: Sounds more like a cold than pregnancy (except for the sore breasts). I, unfortunately, had unprotected sex numerous times with my ex girlfriend and pulled out. She never got pregnant. You are most likely to get pregnant near the middle of your cycle 12-16 days into it. According to my calculations, you had sex 8 days into it. You should be ok, but the risk is still there. I wouldn't stress too much, but get a test if you just need to know. If you stress it can delay your period and you'll just be stressed for longer. I would give you about a .5% chance of being pregnant if that makes you feel better. [ Solcito's advice column | Ask Solcito A Question ]
