To be honest they've never been what I'd call 'regular' not like, "i can be sure on THIS DAY I'll start", it's very common for them to be late by one or two weeks but it was a lot of years ago that i last got one so early. Ill keep an eye on what happens and call the doctor if they keep be...

Hi! I have a quick question about menstrual cycles. So i completely skipped a period this December just gone; my last one before that was the end of November and then i didn't get another until around the 26th January. It was a pretty normal period but with slightly less cramping and no breast pain ...

Thank you so much Heather I've read through this a few times and its so kind of you, it's a very difficult and paranoid thing to work through, it impacts most of my life at this stage and I feel quite hopeless and helpless. I'm trying hard to work through it and keep the advice and support from here...

Oh no I really appreciate the response and for taking the time to read, I know I'm rehashing questions already asked, and I honestly am thankful for the BIG THAT'S RIGHT confirmation haha! I have a folder on my phone filled with screenshots from the answers and articles here which I'll continue to r...

Hi scarleteen, I apologise about posting this kind of thing again I'm just really trying to work through this horrible fear in my head and I'm trying to just get my thoughts across in a safe place! My phobia of semen is getting really crippling; it consumes my every waking moment and can barely leav...

Hello! I wanted to ask if it's normal for periods to just kind of, be a bit weird sometimes? I usually have cycle of between 4-6 weeks, and I pretty much always get painful cramps throughout and painful breasts. Lately though I'm noticing little to no breast pain and not nearly as much cramping, as ...

Thank you so much for clearing that up! I've read through quite a few of the sex ed articles and I'm very grateful for how in depth and educational they are! They go into a lot of detail that others I've read don't and I feel like a reproduction expert now, maybe a change of career is in order lol!

It's a huge help to me to keep me grounded! I've been repeating these facts from the articles back to myself when struggling and I feel like I'm starting to feel things ease in my head a little. If I may ask another question, I'm often using hand sanitizer (we have to at work since it's retail and c...

Oh this was a wonderful thread, a lot of this really rings true for me as well. It's good to know I'm not alone in this fear and it's a matter of anxious and irrational thinking and nothing based in reality! It makes me almost wish I had been sexually active in the past so I would have an idea of ho...

If you're still around here supernatural I'd love to know how you're doing and if you're over your fears now! I'm going through something similar and would really love to get some advice from someone who's also been through this fear <3

So I have just one more question just to clarify; I don't want to appear as if I'm just seeking reassurance but information is all so varied it confuses me! So semen/sperm will absolutely NOT survive being moved from place to place? Such as if a person had it on their hands, touched a door handle et...

I'd like to send a private message to another member but it says I'm not authorised to, is there a way I can be?

Thank you so much for your time in replying, I feel a little calmer after this and the articles on the site are really informative and reassuring! I hope in the next few weeks I'll be able to start talking therapy and get my life back because I can't even see a way out right now. I wouldn't even hav...

Thank you very much for the reply! Yes it's extremely debilitating having this kind of anxiety, ive tried reading resources online but the articles all vary so much it just made it worse since I didn't know what to believe! I've never been sexually active so I'm very unsure how many things work, and...

Hi scarleteen! I'm new here and and have been suffering with extreme anxiety over the possibility of pregnancy from sperm in the environment; Ive basically convinced myself it is EVERYWHERE and if any so much as touches me or I accidentally touch any left by hands on door handles, public benches, ev...
