Some wise advice...
Well i had sex 8 days ago and I'm supposed to get my period 6-7 days ago but missed it and freaking out because protection wasn't so reliable, u can cut me slack because it's my second time having sex and it was unplanned for. I have couple of questions... How long should I wait to take a pregnancy test so it would be accurate?! Does birth control make you gain weight?! If I somehow decide to get an aboration, can I be submitted out of the hospital in the same day (I'm in middle of collage exams that will set my future)?! Will it affect my movement?! Thanks

Maybe give some free advice about: Pregnancy?
You have asked questions that being a male I have no first hand knowledge in or what I would consider myself an expert in. I have done some research on a couple of your questions and will try to answer them for you. You may get better more knowledgeable answers from someone like marinemom24. She too is an older adviser and may be able to give you better advice.
Abortion Procedures: In general an abortion is done on an out patient bases. After the procedure is completed the patient is told to go home a rest for a day or two. I would suggest if you are considering an abortion and do not want it to interfere with exams that you schedule your procedure for a Friday afternoon.
Birth control and weight gain: Much of the research I have done tells me that it can cause some weight gain it depends on the type of birth control. This is something you and your doctor should discuss as there are a number of different types of birth control options to choose from. Which ones are right for you is something that needs to be discussed with your doctor.
Pregnancy testing: From what I read the best rated test for home testing was Clear Blue Digital. It says if you think your pregnant to test, if it comes up negative, wait a few days and test again. If it still comes up negative go to a doctor for a blood test if you still feel your pregnant. If it comes up positive you should have it verified by a doctor with a blood test.
I wish I had some better advise to offer you, as I said this is not my usual area of expertise.
You do appear undecided on whether to see the pregnancy through or have an abortion. I consider myself to be very liberal and that puts me in the pro choice column.
Once you let people know your pregnant, if you are pregnant, you are going to receive many different points of view and advise as to what to do. Remember one thing; this is your body, your choice. You have to do what you feel is the best for you. Whatever choice you make is the choice you make you and I don't mean that in any demeaning form. What I mean is others can offer advice but they don't have to live with their advice.
Should you decide to see the pregnancy through and give the child up for adoption; here again it is your choice, and a very noble on at that.
You have to do what you feel is right for you; This is the meaning of Pro Choice.
This is all I will say on this subject, the rest is up to you. I will be here to listen and support you in any choice you make should you need someone to listen to you or help you in your thought process.
