Q: Please Help Me....

Hello,
i was wondering if you could help me? I have a problem.
Last night I went out with some friends and ended up spending the night with one of my male friends. However, I am a virgin and am unsure as to whether we actually had sexual intercourse. I had been drinking too and am even less sure of myself as to whether it is possible that I could now be pregnant. I am not on any form of contraceptive and we didn't use anything either.
I know that I have made a very foolish mistake and many people reading this will consider this to be my own fault, which it is. I know I have been incredibly silly and have never behaved in such a way before. However, no matter what you think of me....Please help me, i'm so frightened. I don't know what to do or who to ask.
How soon can I find out if I am pregnant? I want to take a test asap. I think that I am between three quarters the way through and the end of my cycle if that helps?
Please, I am desperate for help....If anyone can offer any help....
Thank you.

You still have time to go to the doctor and get a morning after pill. Or you can wait until you miss your period and take a pregnancy test.

Either way use this as a learning experience, don't have sex until you are responsible enough to use protection and/or raise a child. Take the time to educate yourself about your cycle and what the different phases of your cycle mean.......
Just remember that becoming pregnant is a risk you take everytime you have sex.

Good luck.

Foxy is right. You need to get yourself on some kind of contreceptive, or buy condoms and a spermicide to protect yourself - not only should you worry about pregnancy, but about std's as well!
If you say you are about 3/4 through your cycle, do you mean you are about to get your period in a few days? If so, then of course there is always a chance of getting pregnant, but in general, if you are close to your period coming, then I might say that you are ok and not pregnant.
The most fertile days for a woman (and this is based on a 28 day cycle) is from cd10 (cd1 being the first day of your period) to cd16. After you have ovulated, the chances of becoming pregnant is slim.
Like foxy said - go and get the morning after pill, and learn from this experience.
If you have more questions, there are also local numbers that you can call, or you can ask them in here, and people will try their best to help you.
Good luck.
