Hi I'm 18 and my boyfriend and decided to have sex for the first time, both of us were newbies mad we were getting in the mood, it all happened so fast, it probably only lasted for 15 minutes and he didn't ejactulate inside of me, but I'm worried about the precum, and the fact that it was ten days before my period AND it was unprotected. Although I am on the pill I do take it daily haven't ever missed one yet,but I'm worried could I be pregnant? Please I need your advice I'm freaking out and don't know what to do :(
Hi Trouble,
Relax.
The birth control pill (daily) is very effective. Taken regularly as you have the odds of getting pregnant are about 1 in 100. Even better, the odds of getting pregnant drop rapidly about 10 days before your period is due - because it's after ovulation and the egg only can survive about 48 hours.
It's extremely unlikely that you need to worry.
It's normal to "freak out" after the first time for both women and men.
Hope it helps.
