Pregnancy or Hormonal Imbalance?

by tam04, May 16, 2009 06:27AM
Hi... I am 21 years old. Last month I had oral sex with my boyfriend on the 17th of April.. I got really scared so I ended up taking an emergency contraceptive.
I was supposed to get my periods on the 11th of may but still havent got them. I have taken several pregnancy tests but all have been negative.
Yesterday I went to see a doctor who prescribed meprate tablet... Is this safe?
Could I still be pregnant? Also, since my mother is a doctor could I tell her I have missed my periods since the doctor said it was probably a hormonal imbalance.. would my mom find out I took an i-pill??

please help!

First, your mom wouldn't find out you took anything unless you told her, and you can NOT get pregnant by having oral sex, even if you get sperm in your mouth and kiss your partner and he then gives you oral sex. You don't get pregnant by having semen in your mouth you get pregnant by semen in your vagina. If you did not have unprotected sex then you are not pregnant, and there was no need for the pill. Your period is probably late because you are stressing over the possibility of being pregnant, but you're not.

It is IMPOSSIBLE for you to get pregnant through oral sex -  you are not pregnant.

The emergency contraceptive is known to effect ones cycle - very likely this has what has happened here.

Also does anyone know how long it will take for the periods to normalize? The doctor said I should take Meprate tablets... But I am not sure if I should.. does anyone know about them?

I dont know anything about meprate tablets but the emergency contraceptive pill should only effect you this cycle (you may be a week or too late, or may miss your period altogether).

You will not get pregnant from getting semen on your stomach.
