Teen Pregnancy(urgent)
Posted: 11-06-03 02:01am

One of my best friends thinks she might be pregnant. She is 14, and in the 9th grade. Her and her boyfriend had unprotected sex, becuase she is on birth control and, and he said it would be alright if it was unprotected, but she had only been on the birth control for 1 day. She went to a pregnancy center to get the birth control. Now she thinks she's pregnant. She has bad stomach pains, and is 5 days late for her period.I bought her a pregnancy test today, and since we have off of school for 2 days, and she is grounded we are going to do it on monday at school. What should I do, please help me and give me idea's to help her.Please

Hi 1234,

your friend would need to be on birth control pills for at least 2 weeks to be protected. Although she has been responsible in attempting to protect herself, she has had intercourse a little too early. The pill doesn't protect her from contracting std's (sexually transmitted diseases) either, she needs to be using condoms and birth control pills or she is at risk of contracting aids, herpes, genital warts and a multitude of other diseases. The stomach pains she is having could be because she is late for her period. Stress will delay a period, so try and get her to relax so that her period will come. She is very lucky to have a wonderful friend like you to buy her a pregnancy test, good luck with the test and I hope it all works out.

Please Inform Your Friend...

Not to take the pill anymore, because it was not effective when she had sex, she is probably preg. She should tell her mom, and take the test with her...Her mom will make sure that it is done correctly. If she is she still needs to tell her mom anyway.

Wishing your friend the best,

Dont be too excited, somtimes tests are innacurate sometimes. And they can be negative and its false. You never know. Just hope it was right. Make sure she stays on her bc.
