not very high, i don't think you have anything to worry about. it is possible but it's highly unlikely.

thanks alot, i was going a little stir crazy, you know?

okay, listen, my I'm talking to my g/f and she feels sick. this happened yesterday, the "intercourse" without penetration and she just apparently threw up. would it hit her this fast if she was pregnant or is she just feeling a bit sick?

She said she feels hungover and we did drink alot yesterday...

it would definately not come on that fast.
She is mor ethan likely hung over.

okay, thanks a lot, I'll prolly update at some point tomorrow or whatever to see how she is...

also, for the record, she says it's about that time of the month for her...

I swear, I've sorta been freaking out about this all day, but I guess it's just me being jumpy...

I dunno, sex is something that after you hear about so much, you want it, but afterwards, you can really freak out about it and just think "what if?", you know?

I guess I have a couple of questions still:

-How quickly/or when might these symptoms hit her, if they are signs of pregnancy?
-Is the main first symptom the late/missed period?
-How long after the "intercourse" do you have to wait for a pregnancy test to be able to tell?
-In terms of the US, can you get an abortion without a parents consent if you are under 18?

alright, well listen, we did this on Friday night, at about 8 oclock or nine oclock.

Tomorrow morning, my girlfriend is going to school to get emergency contraception, just in case, I guess to take it.

Will the emergency contraception still work at this point?
Would it basically eliminate the chance of a pregnancy?


I mean, I'd like if you could reply....

1. Symptoms of early pregnancy usually don't show up for at least two weeks. However, you can never rely on symptoms. Many women have no symptoms at all during early pregnancy. Also, symptoms of early pregnancy are the same as symptoms for dozens of other things. So the only way to know is to take a pregnancy test.

2. Yes, many women first wonder if they are pregnant when they miss a period. However, you can't rely on that either. Some women still bleed even during pregnancy. Also, stress and many other things can cause a period to be late.

3. You can usually test as early as the first day of your missed period (or in this case, the first day of your girlfriend's missed period).

4. I believe so if you go to Planned Parenthood. Although, it's a heck of a lot easier to get and use birth control than it is to get an abortion. So your girlfriend should go to a clinic and get birth control if she is not pregnant.

thanks alot, you know, it's really helpful...

I believe the morning after pill is the most effective if used within 48 hours. I am not sure what its failure rate is.

Ok, according to this site:

"The morning-after pill is designed to be taken within 72 hours of intercourse with a second dose taken 12 hours later....According to the Food and Drug Administration, the morning-after pill is 80 percent effective in preventing pregnancy after a single act of unprotected sex."
