scared of being pregnant irrationally

Unread post by nivilivi »

i had sex with my boyfriend for the first time and he used a condom, but it was a little bit baggy but it definitely didn’t slip off during and he didn’t actually cum and i think i’ve already had ovulation this month previously but i’m still so scared about being pregnant. pls tell me how low the chances are haha

Hi there, nivilivi.

So, we can't give you the kind of information you're asking for, save to refer you to the effectiveness rates of condoms, which you'll find here: https://www.scarleteen.com/birth_control_bingo_condoms

But you picked a title for this that says you feel irrationally scared of being pregnant. That we can talk to you more4 about, whether it's about if your fears are, in fact, rational or irrational, and what you can do to manage them.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. - Margaret Mead
