Q: Help Please: Could I Be... ?

Hi there...

I was raped 2 weeks ago in a nightclub and while he did use a condom, I have a serious and urgent question: is it possible for me to have gotten pregnant from him rubbing his penis (and the pre-cum) and then fingering me?

Here are my symptoms:
- period is 10 days late
- constant dizziness
- massive headache: it feels like someone is squeezing my brain
- hot flashes/fever

please help me out if you can...

Your period being late is a sign of pregnancy, but the other symptoms don't really sound pregnancy related....

Did you go file a report and get checked out by a dr?? You really should see a Dr. Asap!

Good luck hun!!

Just a couple of questions for you sorry hun but the same happened to me just not at a night club
1st.. Did you report the rape?
2nd.. Did you go to the hospital for cultures and a pap??
3d. Have you seen a doc.???
I know right now you probally dont feel comfortable around anyone or anyone touching you, but please make sure you seek medical attention. And they would have given you a morning after pill to prevent preg.

Also to ans. Your question. I think it could be a couple of things yes preg. Could be one. Have you taken a preg. Test yet if not go ahead and take one since you are late. If it comes back neg. Get to a doc to make sure that it is nothing else ex. Std or anything else I dont want to scare you but anything is possible. Good luck hun.. And im here if you need to talk.

I tried to book a doctor's appt but they're all full up today... I just bought 2 pregnancy tests so next time I pee, I will do one.

Tazzy ~ no, no and no.

It was my fault anyway, I was acting like a promiscuous person and I just let it get too far and then it was too late.

Thanks for your replies.. I will post any developments here. =)

If you said no, then it is not your fault. *ever* regardless of the situation. If you said no, it was rape, regardless of the situation. He takes the blame. It is not wrong for you to change your mind, it is wrong for him to continue when you don't want it. Any way you look at it, it was rape, and you were not at fault.

And a good advice after such a situation is to go to the er. They should be able to give you the emergency contraception, just in case. They you won't have to worry.

But yes, if in doubt, test.
