Q: a Guy Who Need's Help Immediately.

Alright, I'm an 18 year old male on this predominately female forum. I have a few concerns that I would like to address.

First of all, my girlfriend of 2 years and I have NEVER had unprotected sex. Everytime we have ever engaged in intercourse, I have used a condom, and pulled out before I ejaculated just to ensure that if the condom broke that I would cum inside of her. The condom has never broke...

She's a small female (about 100 pounds) and her period patterns have been very irregular lately. Her period has gotten progressively later each month. This does not worry me as, like I said, she is small and smaller females have longer cycles (from what I understand). Her cycle is also a typical 5 day one, and does not resemble "spotting."

My main concern is that her breasts have gotten noticeably larger in the last month. Could this be swelling from PMS or her period? Can a condom leak without breaking? Can my girlfriend, even though I have never came inside her, be pregnant?

If she thinks she might be pregnant, you should ask her to take a test. I'm not sure if breasts necessarily get bigger in early pregnancy (they could though, I imagine) but they can become tender.

Good job on using condoms! You are most likely protected and she is probably just fine.

Birth Control?

I definately agree about taking a pregnancy test.. Sometimes gaining weight can increase her size. And if she is as small as you say she is her body may just be developing now with bigger hips larger breast ect.. Another thing that can make her breast bigger is birth control. Has that changed recently? Its what happened to me, one day all of the sudden I had boobs. But most of all.. when pregnancy is on your mind then you tend to notice something that you didn't before. Good luck.

Thank you. She took a test today and it read negative. Is a pregnancy test effective when you take it after your period? On the box it says "effective for up to 4 days before missed period." This is somewhat misleading.

HCG can be found in your urine as early as 6 days past ovulation. Very sensitive home pregnancy tests can detect your pregnancy at about 9 or 10 days past ovulation in a significant percentage of cases.

It Should Be

Yes it should be. What the box is saying is that you can test up to four days "before" you miss your period. Meaning you can take it on the 10th when you expect your period on the 14th. But the accuracy increases the closer you are to when your period is due.

Quick question.. Did your GF ever miss a period?

Good luck.
