How much should I worry?

by IAmVeryWorried, Nov 01, 2009 08:09PM
Hi Doc.  I'm not going to try and make excuses for what happened, but here it is:

I had some sexual relations with someone I did not know really well.  Part way into messing around, I didn't realize it at first but she had put me inside of her without a condom and we had sex for somewhere around a minute.  I did not ejaculate until awhile later and via other means.

Her last period started about 24 days prior (now 32 days ago).  About 5 or 6 days later her nipples started to become sensitive (not normal for her).  Then that went away and her breasts started getting sore 2 days ago and she was getting emotional like she was "about to start her period" but still hasn't.  The total time elapsed had been 8 days now.  Also, I had urinated multiple times since I had last ejaculated.  She has been having irregular periods most likely due to changes in her life lately.

She is 30 years old and got pregnant once when she was 18 when someone ejaculated in her.

I know there is a risk that she is pregnant..I am just looking to get a feel for, REALISTICALLY, how much I should worry

Thanks!!!!

HI!
I think that chances are low--since she was so late in her cycle--day 24 if I understand everything correctly--and since you didn't ejaculate.  The chance is not zero however.
Don't forget about Plan B--the morning after pill--although its too late in this instance.
If she has a normal period within the next week or so, I think you are in the clear. If more than two weeks pass and no menstrual period, then it is definitely time to take a test.
By the way, the breast tenderness, etc. is almost certainly NOT due to a pregnancy caused by intercourse only 8 days ago.  It takes a minimum of 10 days for any pregnancy-related symptoms to occur.
Good luck!

I dont think you should worry much because you didn't ejaculated in her. But pre *** can still get her pregnant but its less of a chance that she is since it's only been 8 days she pro going to get her period. if not then wait till her next miss period and take a test.

ljskbm,

I suggest posting your question as a new topic in one of the member forums or by submitting it in this expert forum ($22).  Otherwise, it is almost certain that you will not get a reply.  Good luck

Oh and thanks for the info Doc!!
