i'm 21 and i was a virgin til last night, i had sex with this guy we ued a condom but i had a question since it was all dark i could just feel it that the condom didnt got to the END of the penis so idk if this is normal, it was placed normal but i thought it had to conver the entire penis but there was this gap at the end so i wanna know if this is normal?...also i forgot all about menstrual cycle and fertile days etc...i just finished my period the day before we had sex, does that mean i have a fewer chance on getting pregnant or a higher one ?
Additional info, added Sunday February 13 2011, 9:33 pm: the gap was not at the tip of the penis, it was at the end . Want to answer more questions in the Sexual Health and Reproduction category? Maybe give some free advice about: Condoms? adviceman49 answered Monday February 14 2011, 9:02 am: marinemom 24 is correct in her answer to you. The gap at the end of the condom is a reservoir for the semen to collect in. If it was not there the force of the ejaculation could cause the condom to rupture; so always make sure your partner does not try to force his penis to the very end of the condom and the reservoir is hanging free.
The only other advice I would offer is that now that you are sexually active, you consider some for of oral contraceptive for yourself. While condom usage is a must until you form a long term monogamous relationship, and both you and your partner have been tested for HIV. Oral contraception for you is a better form of birth control as the condom is less than 90% effective as a birth control method. Th oral contraceptives are as much as 99% effective.

marinemom24 answered Sunday February 13 2011, 6:21 pm: It sounds like the condom was worn correctly. There's always a bit of room at the tip for the semen to collect. As for the menstrual cycle and the possibility of pregnancy, everyone's cycle varies and pregnancy is always a possibility, even during menstruation. If you're at all concerned I'd recommend getting a pregnancy test to put your mind at ease. Hope this helps. [ marinemom24's advice column | Ask marinemom24 A Question ]
