My boyfriend and I were making out and things started to get a heated and next thing I knew he had part of his penis out of his boxers. Once I realized this I told him that he needed to put it away, because we had no protection and I'm very nervous about pregnancy due to a pregnancy scare about a year ago with my ex boyfriend.

He did pull his pants up and we continued making out and manual/oral sex. I was on my period at the time also. Now, about 2 weeks later I can't stop thinking about the risk of pregnancy. I've read all your articles such as, the pregnancy scare companion, can I get pregnant or Sti from that, the reproduction guide, etc. and I know that direct genital to genital contact poses a risk.

What I'm getting at is because the genital to genital contact was only for a couple seconds and there was no semen/ejaculation, should I worry about a risk of pregnancy? Also, I know it's possible to get pregnant at any point in your cycle but because I was on my period that would technically be considered "safe" due to the fact I had already ovulated. My periods are also about a 31 day average.

We will not answer ANY questions about pregnancy fear or anxiety in our direct services from users who are not pregnant or who are not or have not otherwise been directly involved with an actual pregnancy.

Please do not post this kind of question. If you are seeing this text, and your thread is locked, it is because you have posted this kind of question.

We CAN and WILL talk about things like:
• choosing and using a method or methods of contraception for any future sexual activity
• creating your own sexual limits and boundaries based on your needs and/or presenting them to any partners
• making sexual choices that suit your own needs, abilities and limitations, including your own readiness for certain possible risks
• help locating or using emergency contraception if and when you have had a pregnancy risk
• discussing options with a real, existing pregnancy, and help finding and accessing those options, such as abortion services and pre-natal care, or discussing feelings or concerns about a past pregnancy
• help with anxiety like locating mental health services, sound self-help or asking for support from friends or family
