G/f Possibly Pregnant
Posted: 02-06-06 16:04pm

Alright, i've gone through this one time already with her and thats because the condom had slipped off inside of her and I had rushed to the store with her and we picked up the "morning after" pill. It gave her insane side effects and no child. I was with my gf yesterday and usually she gets her period around the 4th -- and she hasn't.. Is there a reason to panic? I've looked up all the symptoms and she says she only had 1 about a week and a half ago (the urination one, although she says she drank a lot of water) I am going to have her take a pregnancy test soon and I really need to know if theres any options I would have? (without anyone other than us knowing ex. Parents) I mean, neither of us are ready for a child and we somewhat favor abortion, but we are in love with each other more than anything. I know its wrong to do that, but we really can't do it! I know I shouldn't have had sex with her unprotected.. (although I never climax) what are the chances that she is pregnant and is there anything we could do to prevent a baby from happening and if you could please leave details on how to do that and the cost (need-be) it would be the best. Ty. -steve (i'm 18 - she's 17)

Any time you have sex w/her there is a chance she can get pregnant! Is she on birth control?

Maybe its just a little late.....I didn't have a pieriod one month, and I wasn't preg!

Anything can throw off a menstural cycle, has she lost weight? Is she under stress? There are many other things that can throw it off.

But she could be preg! Its not the worst thing in the world to come clean with your parents, they might actually be able to give you some good advice.

If she is preg, its both of your guys choice what to do with the baby, make sure shes totally comfortable with the abortion, and she should get counsuling after it!!! An abortion can be extremly emotional!

New york does not require parental consent for an abortion, so you are okay there.

The morning after pill can whack out your periods a bit, so definately have her take a test. I actually work in abortion clinics, and I have had an abortion, so if you need anything let me know. :)

if you want to know what abortion clincis are available check out

http://www.Gynpages.Com

click on new york.. It will give you lists of clinics in your area,a nd prices. They also give free pregnancy tests.

You had said that the morning after pill can throw it out of whack? What do you mean? I'm saying that she took the pill a number of weeks ago and her last ... You know.. Time was around the 4th.. Can it still mess with the times she gets them even if it was a few weeks ago?

Some gynos give out free bc! My ob/gyn gave me seasonal, anough pills to last me for 9 months all for free! I was suprised!

The price really depends on the pill you take, and wither or not her health insurance pays for it! For ortho lo I only had to pay $10, cuz my dads insuance covers it, but I had to pay full price for it one time because I lost it somewhere and I had to pay $45!

I think planned parent clinics give it out for free, but i've never been to one so i'm not absolutly positive!!

Lets say your period was 2 weeks ago, and you take the morning after pill now. You may have some bleeding in a week, and then not bleed again for another month because that bleeding was your "period". The morning after pill does cause bleeding irregularities.

Planned parenthood sells birth control from anywhere from say 5$-20$ a pack..
They offer it to teens for free at many locations.

So your saying that even though she took the pill a while back that it still might change the times? How do I find out where planned parenthood clinics are for birth control? I live in buffalo ny (well a suburb of it) and price isnt a big deal to me.. Because when it comes to having a child or not.. 25 bucks is perfect to me. What you think the chances of her being pregnant are?

I was wondering, since I am currently not pregnant and never going to be (i'm male. Lol.) this question is for all the females who are pregnant or have been pregnant - what were the usual symptoms you had and when did they start/last and whatnot.. Any really early signs? Also, what are the symptoms of birth control? I had talked it over with my girl and she is still wavy because she isn't sure of the side effects (i'm going to assume it's mainly because she doesn't want the feeling of the 'morning after' pill everytime she takes a birth control pill) could any1 give me their personal response to this topic and this question? Ty.

The morning after pill is a very large dose of hormones indeed, so side effects are very very common! There are very low doses of birth control such as nuva ring, which is the lowest dose of hormones around, and many many women tolerate it very well.

this is the official website of planned aprenthood of buffalo..They tell you how to qualify for free services etc... Even if women do not qualify for free services they still pay a reduced amount.

this is a very very good abortion clinic in buffalo. They offer free pregnancy tests. Minors do not need consent.
