Hi boston618, welcome!

Since you have gotten your period I think you should be safe, this time. But if you are going to be playing around it would be a very good idea to be using an effective method of birth control. There have been instances where a woman will have a period when newly pregnant but those instances are rare and her period is often much different than the one she would normally expect.

With any genital contact, regardless of how slight there is the possibility of an accidental pregnancy if his fluids come in contact with your fertile cervical mucus. And, unless you and your partner have been tested for STDs and found to be free of them then you should be using condoms because condoms are the only birth control method that will provide effective protection against most STDs.

Thanks for posting. If you have more questions, please ask. Keep in touch and let us know how you're doing, ok?

Good luck,

      Jill

Hi,


ANd just to expand a little on Jill's post, most sexually transmitted diseases are spread by just genital to genital contact.
