I hope I am welcome here (i am a man). I
have a serious question. My wife has been
off of birth control (oral) for several
months now. We have been using spermicide
(foam type) and condoms. Her last period
started on april 19 or 20th. We had sex
on the 25th. During the act, we did use
the spermicide but not the condom (yes, I
know it was stupid). I also withdrew at
the last minute. It kind of "came fast"!
Anyway, as my wife didn't "finish" yet, I
cleaned up and re-inserted. We did add
another application of the foam
spermicide, however. Well, she has not
had her period yet (as of may 20th) and I
am afraid she may be pregnant. Her cycle
is not always a set number of days but she
is still past due. Can anyone tell me the
chances of her being pregnant? Thank you
very much.

It depends on how much you came, how well
you cleaned yourself and how well you
applied the spermacide. There is a chance
that she could be pregnant but the chances
are slim, becasue of the spermacide. I
would suggest you get a few of the morning
after pills for when something like this
happens and then you dont have to worrie.
Ask your wife to take a test to ease your
mind.

You are always welcome here! I have
known a lot of women to get pregnant on
the foam, nothing is 100% but I feel
something is better than nothing, stuff
happens. If she is stressing then that
can push back her period. Keep us posted
on what you find out.
Good luck!
Sincerely,
sandy

Thanks for the replies. I did buy a test
(e.P.T) but she wants to wait a few more
days before she uses it. I think she is
just as afraid as I am. After this, I am
going to look into getting a vasectomy.
The stress is killing us! We already have
three children and we are finished. We
are fast approaching 40 and are getting
ready to slwo down some. I hope the
spermicide did the trick.
