Just Want to Know
Posted: 10-24-04 01:19am

I am plannong on having sex for the first time in a couple of days.Should I have sex yet because it's day 6 or 7 after my period.I know that your baod olvulates a little bit after your period. Is the chance of getting prgnant bigger around this time or should I be okay. What is the probablity of getting pregnant on your first time? I just want to be safe. Getting pregnant at a young age is my worst fear.


Thank you

First off your never okay you have to use a condom unless your on the pill though the lining in the uterus is still comming in you can get pregnat even if its your first time but do the safe thing and use a condom to give you a 98% chance of not getting pregnant

Seven days after your period would be six or seven days before you ovulate (on a 28 day cycle). Sperm can live in you for five days...That puts you really close to ovulation, and if it happens early, you could be in trouble! My suggestion would be to use a condom or diaghram of some sort. Then your chances of pregnancy are greatly reduced.

And yes, you can get pregnant your first time.

Pleeze reconsider your decision! Don't listen to all these people, they've made their mistakes now they want you to do the same! Do u really want 2 give it away just yet? Yes, you could get pregnant, and you will regret this I promise u! - first time experiences with the wrong guy- big mistake!! This is one of the most serious decisions you'll ever have to make in your life and the torture later on will not be worth it, trust me!

Moral issues aside, losing your virginity is a huge step.It is rarely any fun for you,the guy comes in 2 minutes and you are left wondering what all the fuss is about.Seriously, you need to use a condom and another form of birth control.You are young and verrry fertile and you do not want to become pregnant your first time(it can happen!!!).Do not count on your ovulation being in synch with your periods-too many variables.Besides,you need to practice safe sex-there are wayyyyy toooo many diseases out there that can be worse than an unexpected pregnancy.Give some serious thought to having sex,because you will only have one first time and it would be nice if it were memorable,not just done to get it over with.I am talking from personal experience-i wish I had been a little more selective in my first partner.I felt left out-all my friends had already had sex(and gotten the clap and had abortions).I just did it and did not even tell this guy I was a virgin-never saw him again,either.However,i was always very careful about birth control(i tried not to be a total fool).Those were different times,also.We did niot have the diseases that are prevelant now.I would not recommend casual sex for anyone at this point in time-you can get things that are not curable!
Anyway-i know that you will do what you feel is right for you-just be safe!!Patty
