Pregnancy concerns

 

Q: Recently I had sexual intercourse while on my period and he did not use a condom. I wanted to know the risks of that. Please write back and tell me.

The risks of pregnacy during a period are almost negligible, except under certain circumstances, which I explained in a previous question.

Q: I am 18 and had anal sex with my boyfriend. I am wondering if I could get pregnant from that. If I can, I would like to know what the chances are. We are generally careful to make sure when it comes back out that it stays away from my vaginal opening. The only time I could think that it could get near the opening is when I am cleaning myself up afterwards. I missed my period this last month, that is why I am so scared. I have never had actual intercourse, that’s why I would be destroyed if I got pregnant. I am really scared and don’t know what to do. I am just looking for answers. A response as soon as possible would be greatly appreciated. I can’t sleep.

I strongly recommend that you get tested for pregnancy. You can do the test yourself with certain kits available in drug stores. Anal sex too can cause pregnancy because the semen can seep from the anus and spread up to and into the vaginal canal. Even if you wipe it out you still run the risk because the spermatozoa, invisible to naked eye, are capable of swimming their way up to the vagina through the moisture contact between vulva and anus.

Q: Finally someone who can help me!!! Well recently me and my girlfriend were fooling around and there is a possibility that some pre-ejaculate may have touched the outside of her vagina, it was during the time of her period and I was just wondering if there is a possibility of pregnancy. If so what are the odds?

Q: if there was a small amount of sperm on my hand, and i inserted it into the girl's vagina a little time after ejaculation, could she become pregnant?

Ans: Yes, if all other factors favour it.

Q: i may sound stupid but i was wondering if i could get pregnant by a guy if we had sex around the time of my period. He didn't even go in all the way or get off like squirt nething and we used a condom. it has been like racking my head and i just wanna know if it is possible. write back ASAP. thanx

You need not worry about chances of pregnancy because your b/f has not ejaculated, he was wearing a condom and it happenned to be your periods when you had sex. With these three factors in operation, the odds of pregnancy are practically nil.

But, please remember that, the penis not going all the way into the vagina is no protection against pregnancy.

Similarly, sex during menses does not lead to pregnancy, but there are circumstances when people mistook the intermenstrual bleeding for menses. The former is associated with ovulation; sex during that bleeding/spotting episode can lead to pregnancy.

Q: hi, i had sex the other day unprotected and what are the chances of me being or getting pregnant if he said he didnt release any fluids. Please answer. its really important.

Well, there is no way to tell that he has not released ANY fluids. He could only say about release of semen. But the pre-ejaculatory fluid (pre-cum), which comes out invlountarily, carries some spermatozoa and that much chance of pregnancy. Unprotected sex always carries a risk of pregnancy and STIs. Safety first, thrill next!

Q: My husband always likes to try new things when we are in bed and that does not bother me but one of his new things is... He likes to ejaculate in my hand and watch me masturbate with that hand. He says that once the sperm hits the air it dies and I cannot get pregnant by doing this. Is this true?

No, the spermatozoa will be alive and swimming as long as the film of semen is wet on your hands. If you do not want pregnancy, avoid this technique, or apply a spermicidal jelly to your hands and inside your vagina before using your husband's new technique.

Q: i am a 16 year old girl and want 2 know whether there is any danger to me, my body and my growth if i have sex with my boyfren. he is quite anxious to have it. even i am ready 4 it but i am afraid of its consequenses . he says that there is very little danger of pregnancy if we use a condom .frankly telling u even i would like 2 have sex if there is very little risk.my bf says that iam more curious about it when we touch each other & thats absolutely true .i am really curious about sex.plz help me &tell me if i can have it now & also provide me names of few sites which give good 1st hand information about sex 2 1st timers thank you very much urs faithfully . ts.

Ans: Sex always thrilled millions of youngsters like you, but has left millions of young unmarried girls with unwanted pregnancy, premarital motherhood, sexual diseases including HIV, psychological and physical trauma and social problems associated with all these. All these unfortunate young people burnt their fingers out of an overwhelming curiosity, irresistible temptation, and lack of proper awareness about safer sex. So please think twice before indulging in any sort of sexual activity at this age. In any case learn more about safer sex practices.

Condoms do offer protection against pregnancy but they are not fool proof. There is a 10-30% risk of pregnancy if the condom is not properly used - for ex., if it is worn in such a way making it easily prone to rupture; if the penis is not withdrawn along with the condom held firmly to the penis, soon after ejaculation i.e., while the penis is still hard; if the same condom is used repeatedly, or after the date of expiry, and so on. (use condom properly to get best protection).

Q: I had sex last night with my boyfriend. we had only been doing it for about 1 minute when we realized that the condom was broken. he didn't ejaculate yet, but it is possible to get pregnant from precum. After, he used a spermicidally lubricated condom on his fingers and inserted them into me. We did this twice. What else should we do to avoid pregnancy? thankyou

These self help tricks don't always work because nature has provided the spermatozoa with an amazing capability of speeding their way into the womb and the tubes. In persons whose fertility scores are very high this alone can lead to pregnancy if the woman is ovulating around the same time.

If you cannot avoid participating in sex at this time, you may wish to combine two methods of contraception, preferably a condom + some spermicidal jelly. The first would protect you from sexually transmissible infections, as well as unwanted pregnancy, and the other acts as an additional protection against conception, in case the condom fails.

I'm 70 yrs. masturbate from 10 yrs. 2/3 a week up to 45 so no wet dreams then started yoga ,dhyana, saatwik food etc to improve will power reduce kaama for about ten years I could resist masturbation for months together I never had wet dreams even then for a urinary problem went to urologist he said there is slight enlargement of prostate he said continence strains prostate & advised restart masturbation (once a week). Now there are signs of impotence. No morning erections; Manual stimulation gives soft erection . Ejaculation without force or spurting. Semen quantity less. Now can I continue masturbation or will it strain prostate as it is aged.

Neither coitus nor masturbation causes strain to the prostate. You may continue with masturbation if you feel the need for sexual release, or as long as you don't have difficulty (either psychologically or physically) masturbating.

I'm a 14 yr old female and i was wondering if a boy had cum on his penis and he only stuck it in half way is there a way to get pregnant?

Very well, yes! Please look at the answers above.

Can your chest really grow when you have a lot of sex? I’m asking because I just started having sex with my boyfriend and I heard that your chest grows when you have sex. My chest area has really been growing.

You do not mention your age. Anyway, a woman's breast size increases at different times of the life span for different reasons (pregnancy, lactation, improved nutrition, for ex.,). Sexual activity does not lead to such a growth. However, when sexually aroused, the breasts enlarge temporarily, and give a feeling of fullness. After the sexual excitement subsides they return to normal size. Probably you are at an age when active breast development is taking place. The breasts of a woman grow till about 18 years of age.

Hi. My boyfriend and I are virgins and recently we decided to try and make love, but when he tried to enter me, his erection left quickly. It never does that, I mean it never when I give him a blow job, a hand job, or even make out. At those times it is so erect, that it can not be contained in his pants. I am worried that it is me, but he assures me that it’s not. What can I do to help? He’s only 18, is this even normal?

—Worried ( I am 18 yrs old and so is my boy friend) (Indiana)

Dear Ms. Worried (which you don't have to be!), many a time it happens exactly this way out of fear of pregnancy, tension, anxiety, fear of being detected, or any of similar reasons. Because pregnancy fears do not arise in other situations such as blow job or head job, the loss of erection while trying to penetrate can be explained by the former. Therefore, the problem is neither with you nor with your boy friend.

We do not want to preach, but please be cautioned that such sexual adventures at this age have caused unwanted pregnancies and/or sexually transmitted infections among millions of girls across the globe. Young persons like you always think they are safe or that they have taken precautions, but in a fit of excitement forget to do so, or the measures taken by them turn out to be inadequate.

Please read the points to remember in this page.

is it possible to get any kind of infection by having intercourse in a swimming pool. my husband and i had intercourse in a hotel swimming pool at night but he stopped before he had a orgasm as to not mess up the pool but i wondered if him moving in and out caused water from the pool to give me any kind of infection by coming inside me?                                                -cc in tennessee

It cannot be ruled out. Please get examined by your gynecologist.

I am anu from hyderabad, 22 years old boy studying engineering. I started masturbating from 2 years back. I want to know whether there is any side effects with masturbating. Can i able to enjoy my sex life after marriage.

Why not? Masturbation is harmless and can be practised by any one who needs a sexual relief. In fact, in the era of HIV Disease, it is the safest sexual outlet for all single persons till they settle down with a long term life/sex partner.

 

 


THINGS
TO
REMEBER


Pregnancy can occur -

From pre-ejaculation fluid ('pre-cum');

If condom breaks during sexual intercourse;

Even if the condom is used but not properly;

Through unprotected anal sex, if the semen spills or seeps into vagina;

Even if the penis did not go all the way into the vagina, but ejaculation took place on or near the vulva;

Even if the penis is not hard enough but

If semen ejaculated on the clothes wets the vulva of the female;

Through sex in what may seem to be periods (menses) under certain cirumstances

 

SAFER SEX
GUIDELINES


Avoid all kinds of partner sex till you settle with someone in a committed long term relationship such as marriage or cohabitation.

This will save you the risk and embarrassment of pregnancy, social, psychological and biological problems associated with it, and the dangers of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) including HIV, Hepatitis B and C.

If this is not possible, the male partner should use condom. Proper use of condom prevents pregnancy and STIs in up to 90% of situations.

Masturbation is a safe outlet to release the sexual tensions of single persons. It's harmless.
