What Are The Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

Posted on Wed, 22 Apr 2015

Question: So my girlfriends period is 8 days late. A month ago about two days after period ended I tried to put my penis in her. It lasted maybe a second and she said it hurt. I didn't use a condom and she's not on birth control. Last month her period was 3 weeks late.

Brief Answer:
Chances of pregnancy are less but suggested pregnancy test for confirmation

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

1. If your girlfriend has irregular periods and her periods were 3 weeks delayed last month then it is possible that she might have delayed periods this month also. Your doctor is right in saying the risk is small as you did not penetrate your penis completely and there was no ejaculation.

2. However, for peace of mind you can ask her to take a home pregnancy test and then double confirm absence of pregnancy. A home pregnancy test is more than 97 percent accurate when done after 15 days of probable sexual intercourse.

3. Once it is confirmed that she is not pregnancy, your girlfriend should consult a doctor for irregular periods. If she suffers from any medical condition causing delayed periods then she should take proper treatment.

4. Always make it a habit to use condom when having sex with girlfriend. It will protect from unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted infection.

Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.

Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

Thank you Dr XXXXXXX Now in your own personal opinion do you think my girlfriend is pregnant? And what condom is a good condom for first time virgins?

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.

1. In my opinion, if there was no pre ejaculatory fluid (drops of clear fluid) or semen coming out of your penis when you tried to insert it then the chance of a pregnancy is nil.

2. Condoms are manufactured by many companies and Durex and Trojan are popular and good brands. When using a condom please make sure that you roll it down the right side on your erect penis and it should fit snugly on the penis shaft. You can ask more someone at the pharmacy to help you with your purchase and condoms are same for every one whether he is a virgin or not. This will make sure your sex is safe. Do not use the same condom more than once.

Hope your query is answered.
