Important Question
Posted: 06-04-04 18:02pm

I don't understand how I could've gotten pregnant if my boyfriend and I used protection, the condom didn't break and there was nothing wrong with it. A couple years ago we had unprotected sex (without me knowing) many times and nothing every happened and I wasn't on birth control or anything. So why this time?

Why would age make a difference as to whether you can get pregnant or not? I got pregnant at 14 and there are ladies that get pregnant at 41! And i'm not sure how you got pregnant if the condom didnt break....Maybe it did and u just don't know it.

Well, about the age thing I heard that it matters because you're more furtile when your older. I don't know if that's right or not. And about the condom thing I am positive that it didn't break. That's why I don't know how this happened.

Well I bet there was just a microscopic sized hole in the condom that u cant see... Sperm is so small u cant see it either so thats all it would take.. And no, as u get older, u get less fertile..

When I was 14 my doctor told me that I might have endometriosis and I probably wouldn't ever have babies. When I got into a serious relationship we didn't use condoms (because i'm allergic to latex) for 7 months and no baby. Then I got with my bf i'm with now and we had sex for a year with no condoms and nothing. For some reason 2 months ago I got pregnant. I guess it can happen any time...
