Need advice!!
I have sex on my most fertile day. THREE TIMES!! I'm a college student and a pregnancy really isn't what I need. I've been lucky and so I guess I let my luck take me. The only symptoms I've had was fatigue, no appetite, and headaches. I'm too early to take a test, so I was wondering if anyone had advice.
Ok Lexie there are more kinds of contraceptives out there others than pills and condoms, if you are in a long term relationship he should be understanding and pull out before, this is not a for sure way to prevent pregnancy but will help reduce the chances of pregnancy a little. Like I said though, you will still have the chance of pregnancy. I am married and I am allergic to latex and the lube on any lubricated condom, I have always had bad reactions to any kind of birth control and have tried many different kinds and have decided against them. If you are not going to use protection then pay attention to your cycle closely and avoid having sex on the most promising days to conceive. I know it ***** having to watch yourself but where you are in life right now isn't a good time to have a baby.
Actually...ill be completely honest. i dont want a child, but i do...and birth control is unnatrual...a baby is....but as i said before...im not old enough to care for one. i am in,a long term relationship...and we kinda want a baby...but we arent ready..
I hope everything works out for you. Not judging you at all. Just, if you don't want to get pregnant- use preventative methods. If you do - keep doing what you've been doing. Good luck.
If you dont like stuff messing with your body, you will not enjoy pregnancy or childbirth. Please, you are likely to have not one but many unwanted pregnancies in your lifetime if you don't sort contraception out- unless of course you get chlamydia which may be symptomless and cause long term damage to your fertility? The only safe thing to do is use condoms if you're not in a long term relationship, and if you use lots of lubricant they won't hurt. Trust me, everybody feels like this, but if you have an unwanted pregnancy or an STI you will much worse. If you get herpes you may have symptoms on and off for the rest of your life, and you could get HIV. Don't wait until after something bad happens for you to sort this out. Abstinence is not a realistic proposition for most people!
I was going to get control, but I hate pills or anything that messes with my body. I had it before and it sucked, I wasn't myself and it clashed with my pills for my mood swings. So I got off both. Then I was going to get it again, thought long and hard, and decided that I wasn't going through that again, so I stupidly relied on luck. I'm fully aware that that was a stupid decision. I'm NOT getting an abortion....my mistake, my punishment. And I'm not really sure what I'll do. I guess I'll just go crazy on jobs and hope for the best. I've been through harder times.
You are stupid to rely on luck. What on earth do you think people do when they want to get pregnant? They have lots of sex during their most fertile times. either get on the pill or use condoms, and if you make a mistake, get the morning after pill post coital contraception. If you get pregnant you will need to decide what you will do- would you want to have an abortion? Not an easy or pleasant decision to make. Surely it would be better to take responsibility for yourself and use contraception?
