Help Me out

I lost my birth control pills so i could not start them after my period ended. So last Saturday (Aug 28th) one week from my period ending I had sex with my boyfriend. We used a condom but the condom slipped off while he was pulling out. I don't think that any of his semen got inside of me but I don't know. Then the next day and ahalf (Aug 30th) I had this big amount of bleeding when I whiped but it was only that one time. Later that day I got a morning after pill it was only aobut 50 hours after I had sex so I figured we would be in the clean. The nurse at plan parenthood told me that most women have their periods right away after taking the plan B. Today is Sept.3rd and my period still hasn't came. I called plan parenthood and they told me that it's still ok not to worry just start taking my regular birth control so I did this morning. I'm still very scared that I'm pregnant. I'm going to take a test tomorrow morning and even if I get a neg i'm going to keep taking test every couple of days until my period comes or one comes up positive. Please someone tell me what they think.

I'm not sure how to answer your question, but I had to throw my 2 cents in as to why Planned Parenthood would tell you to go ahead with your birth control pills. If there is a possibility that you are pregnant, the pills can harm the fetus. Interesting advice they gave...

Hi there...


Sorry your in this situation...it's never a fun one to be in. The worrying and waiting....but from what I've read Plan B can really mess some women's bodies up when they take it. If you've been on bc for a while, my guess is that Planned Parenthood might have advised you to just keep taking

I'm still doing fine I went ahead and took a test today even though I figured that it would come up neg. I have an extra test that I'm going to hold on to until later on in the week. The Neg. is helping me study for my Alg exam. I already have one child I guess i'm just scared that life's unexpecties can sneak up on me again. College would be way too hard with two young ones and I think that I would be very disapointed in myself if I didn't finish. I'm sure your right though i've posted on other message boards and a lot of people r telling me not to worry about it trust in the plan B and keep taking my birth control. I just have to keep waiting it out.
