Suggest Precautions To Be Taken Post Unprotected Sex
Hii..I m a girl.. my age is 20 year. now 5 days ago I intimate in physical relationship with my bf. without protection.. now I m afraid of pregnancy. . And now I m waiting for my periods.. . it s My first time. now I m very afraid what can I do. ???
I have gone through your query and can understand your concern... As you engaged in sexual intercourse 5 days earlier nothing could be done now to prevent pregnancy. There are some methods that may be employed to prevent pregnancy after engaging in sexual activity, but they could be employed upto maximum or 3-5 days. However it is not neccesary that you would get pregnant. Conception depends upon a lot of things acting together & only unprotected intercourse may not get you pregnant. You should now wait for your periods. If you get your periods on time means you are not pregnant. If you miss your next period then you might be pregnant & should check for it. So there is always better to use protection while sex. This would eliminate the chance of pregnancy as well it prevents spread of sexual transmitted diseases.
Hope this information helps Good luck
