My boyfriend was on top of me the other night and we were having unprotected sex for the first time. He pulled out of me when he felt the semen coming, but after I felt some on me. I went and washed the area with hot water and soap because I was told it kills the sperm? I'm unsure on whats happening and im extremely scared. Help? anything?

i don't really know what kind of advice you're looking for...

you should be scared. if you're not ready for a baby then you should not be having unprotected sex. there are quite a few babies here that were conceived using the "pull out" (non)method.

washing yourself afterwards isn't going to do anything.

if it's been less than 72 hours you can get the morning after pill. if it's too late for that all you can do is wait to see if your period shows. if not, take a test.

for the future, you should look into the pill. though the pill is not 100% (no birth control is) so you should still pair it with condoms.

i hope you've learned from this mistake.

good luck.
