Okay I was a week late this month on my period, and I finally started but the day I started I had clear sticky stretchy discharge. I've been on my period for three days now and today my boyfriend and I had sex unprotected. We used the pull out method but I don't think he wiped it off before he put it back in. Is there any chance I could get pregnant? I need to know ASAP, so please someone help me so I know if I should go buy the morning after pill. I'm seventeen btw, and I'm not on birth control anymore. I have tried every kind if BC and it all makes me sick. We usually wear condoms but this was a heat of the moment kind of thing.

Hi Sweet,

Yes there is a chance but it isn't likely.  You'd normally not ovulate until between about days 11 and 16 of your cycle, you are on day  3.  Sperm can survive about 5 days.  The egg, only 48 hours.

Wiping off his penis won't help.  He can't clean the urethra and it may contain sperm.  Just inserting his penis, after he's already ejaculated, can squeeze any remaining semen into your vagina.

On day 3 of your cycle you don't need an emergency contraceptive but you can if you want.  Remember, they have side effects too.

Good luck.
