Accuracy of Pregnancy Test (3 Weeks After "intercourse& Posted: 02-25-06 23:36pm
Hello... I would just like to ask, I had
a urine pregnancy test done in a
laboratory-it came out negative. However
I had a few questions..How accurate is it
if I had it only 3 weeks after the
"intercourse"? Is it possible that I get
a different result 2-3 weeks from now?
Because some are saying that it could
still change if I miss a period 2-3 weeks
from now...
Note: I put "intercourse" in double quotes
because we really didn't have sex, what
happened was that I may have pre cum on my
hand and he touched my hand with his hand
and he touched me just a little outside of
the vagina (i still had menstruation
during this occurence, on my 4th day I
think) - but I was reading all these
forums here and they say that in this
scenario it is possible that I get
pregnant. This is why I took a test only
3 weeks from this occurence (i nver had
any sexual interaction of any kind after
that...)
i really really need help! I am not ready
yet for a baby and I want to have one when
I am very very stable. Please, any reply
confirming anything would really help.
Thanks!

Alright, sperm die in oxygen. Your fine.
Dont worry about it. Dont stress untill
you either show symptoms or miss your
period.
Hope I helped.

Thank You! Just a Follow Up Though... Posted: 02-26-06 05:38am
It's a relief to know that sperm dies in
oxygen (lol) - is that immediately? :) I
also have a question, what would be the
symptoms I should be looking at this early
on? Thanks very much!!! You guys are so
helpful...I'm glad I stumbled upon this
forum. Thank you.

Something I Just Thought About... Posted: 02-26-06 05:50am
It's really just because i'm very paranoid
about this stuff. I realy don't want to
have a baby until i'm sure I can give
him/her everything he/she needs - which I
guess would be 3-5 years from now... This
"possibility" has given me so much scare,
I swear i'll never do anything near that
again...I already talked to my boyfriend
and he was so sweet bout it and he agreed
that we never engage in anything that will
make me this nervous again... I guess, he
also told me he believes in responsible
parenting and right now, since we both
just graduated college, we can't afford
that yet....
