Looking For Advice
Posted: 11-25-04 05:32am

Ive recently been worried about geting my girlfriend pregnant. Shes 15 and im unemployed and were definatly not in the position to have a baby. Plus her father hates me and I think he would literally kill me if he knew I was still seeing her let alone got her pregnant and he would probably dissown her. We allways practice safe sex but out of the 30 condoms we used 3 of them splitt. I only ejaculated once and she took the morning after pill, but the other 2 times were in the same menstal cycle so she couldnt use the morning after pill again. I dont think she is pregnant but we both agreed that if she did get pregnant she would have an abortion. We live in england but I was wondering how easy it is to get an abortion. Would she be able to have one without her father finding out? I would go with her for support. She also said she would go on the pill but im a little worried that she might allready be pregnant

You better get a different brand of condoms. There is not way that many should be breaking.

And same menstrual cycle or not, you can only use the morning after pill like three times in a lifetime. It is not safe and it is not to be used as regular birth control.

She should go on the pill/shot or patch so if this happens again the chances are very slim, and you need to get different condoms.

Rancid -- you may already know that birth control pills are available free in the uk. Her own doctor will give her a prescription, or there are usually young persons clinics or sexual health clinics where she could go -- but her own gp would not be allowed to tell her parents anyway, so she shouldn't worry. By the way, they will also give you free condoms.

As for abortion, these are not usually too difficult to obtain, especially under 13 weeks. If necessary, her school nurse would be able to help point her in the right direction. Abortions are covered by the nhs in many cases. Otherwise, planned parenthood will be able to help.

It seems that you are trying to be responsible. But you will need to be very careful and understand what you are doing. Don't take any silly chances.

Thank you for the information.

Yea we have been getin free condoms. But they tend to give you different types, and I wasnt paying atention to the ones that broke. If she is on the pill are you supposed to use condoms too?

Yup, it's best to use condoms too as the pill doesn't protect against stds and also, it's better to have two methods than one.

If she's pregnant, there should be no problem getting an abortion and they will only tell her parents in extreme circumstances. Go to h ttp://www.Bpas.Org/ for further details.
