Hi. So me and my boyfriend had sex on Friday. I'm on birth control I take it every day at approximately the same time but I took it an hour late on Saturday and Sunday. He used a condom with spermicide. And he pulled out long before he ejaculated. I bought 2 pregnancy tests today and I took both of them and it seems that the first one contained a very faint line showing positive and the negative was super dark and bold within the time limit and the little very faint line is still there now. The second one only showed the super dark and bold negative line. The little chance of me being pregnant scared me so I went to my local Walgreens and was able to take the Take Action pill 30 minutes to an hour before the 72 hour mark. We have been doing this for a few months now and have had no problem and have been extremely safe. Do you think I should worry about being pregnant?

Hi there Bunny17,

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

For help dealing with a scare (including what poses a risk and your next steps based on your unique situation), you may use our tool on site built for this purpose: The Pregnancy Panic Companion.
