Aside of lubricants when you
plan to have sex what you also need to
think is regards pregnancy. Are you on
birth control? And do you know all about
birth control? Are you ready to face
unexceptected pregnancy? How you would
deal with it? Will abortion be the option
and would you feel good about it? Did you
took the hpv(human papilloma virus) shot?
This vaccine is now available for hpv that
wasn't available just a year ago and it's
very good idea to get it before you ever
have sex.
good luck
I know about the risk of pregnancy. Im not
on birth control. My friend have said i
need to get on it to make my periods
regular. I sometime skip a month of not
having a period. They last about 3-4days
and i dont have any cramps. So when i go
to the doctor I will talk to my doctor
about it and get on birth control. As far
as when I start having sex and I get
pregnant abortion will not be a option. I
will have the baby, I dont believe in
abortion. I work and when it comes to
taking care of the baby I know how to take
care of a baby (we have a lot of babies in
my family and I have watched about
everyone of the cousin when they were
infants and up). And i will have help from
family and friends if i was to get
pregnant (not to brag or anything Im the
only female in my fam that doesnt have a
baby yet and im 21 and im in college). As
far as the HPV virus Im not sure if i have
gotten that shot. I will look at my shot
record i had got a lot of shot when i went
to college we were required to get a lot
of shot when we lived on campus. Is that
shot something you have to request or
something they will give you? I will talk
to the doctor about this as well. And
thanks for making me aware of this.

The shot you got for college was probably
for menegitis. The hpv vaccine is very,
very new so you wouldn't have gotten it as
few as two years ago.

Just so you know, the HPV shot is not yet
covered by most insurance and is kinda
expensive. I don't have it for this
reason.

i'm curious, how much does it cost? I hope
it's gets covered by insurance soon. I got
infected with the virus the first time i
had sex so if you ask me I think it's
worth the investment.
