In all honesty, from what you write--- the fact that he used a condom means the chances are pretty slim. If it would be tragic for her to become pregnant and she is going to have anxiety over it, it might not be the greatest idea for her to be having sex. luck to you both
so what do u think the chances are of her being pregnant?
So, it would be very doubtful that your friend is having any symptoms of pregnancy as she wouldn't be far enough along. It is also doubtful that she is pregnant since they used a condom.
If she misses her period, she should wait one week and then take a home pregnancy test.
Tell her to always use protection, to respect her body and not give it away to just anybody. good luck to you both
Hi there and welcome to the forum. First, let me just say that most writing on this forum understand how sex works and we probably don't need the terms you used such as the p word and d word to describe the situation. We get it.
If he used a condom, why does she feel she is pregnant? I'm glad they used protection as this is very very important and the responsible thing to do.
Now, it helps to understand how a cycle works. The first day of a period is day one of a cycle. You start counting from there. Women ovulate once a cycle and often it is around day 14 and they can then conceive for 24 to 48 hours during that time. (this is when an egg is there that can be fertilized). The issue is that while day 14 is the average day, you can never be sure of that! And you also don't know how long sperm will be there to find an egg-- how long it will survive. So---- unprotected sex should always be avoided if one does not want to get pregnant.
Now, symptoms. Those come about because OF a growing fetus. As an egg is fertilized, implants and begins growing into a baby, hormones are produced. These hormones are only present when a woman is pregnant. This is what a prenancy test picks up to register if a woman is pregnant or not. And this hormone grows/ increases as time goes on. SIDE EFFECTS of pregnancy or symptoms are caused as this hormone increases. You must have enough of the hormone present to have symptoms. That is why something like morning sickness/nausea doesn't occur until on average week 6 or 7 after conception.
