I also have a question about pregnancy. My boyfriend and I have been dating for a year and we havent had sex. However we do mess around and his penis rubs against my vagina but i usually have my thong on. He will cum close to my vagina but my labia minoras are very long covering my vagina so i dont think his cum could easily get inside. By doing this could i get pregant

Brief Answer:
Very unlikely

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

it's very unlikely! Getting pregnant is not that easy, but you should be careful anyway. Using condom is one of the most effective ways to avoid pregnancy.

Also. I have been working out everyday for a week and a half. I never use to work out this much. My body feels ao achy and weak can it be from over exercising

Brief Answer:
Yes, it could

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

our muscles get accustomed to the usual level of exercise intensity. Increasing the intensity too much results in an adaptive process that involves muscle pain! Weakness is not normal. The muscles work but they are tender.

Perhaps this not weakness (which means less strength). Is it tiredness? This is normally the case and if you've too much exercise then there is no reason to worry. Rest for a couple of days and everything would be fine.
If you have such symptoms for more than a couple of days (and they won't get any better with rest) then you should visit your doctor for investigation.

Kind Regards!
