Question:
I feel kind of dumb for having to ask this, since i'm 32 years old and should of know better. I recently started dating a guy who i didn't plan on having sex with but i did. I haven't been on birth control in about 2years. My period comes every 29 days and last for about 5 days that there is blood and than another 7 days of on and off brown discharge. We had sex 9 days after my period first started and he pulled out of me before he came. Than 6 days later we had sex again this time with a condom, but he first was inside me without a condom but when he came he had the condom on, but than we had sex 3 more times that night all without a condom but everytime he pulled out of me, but i was on top which made it hard for him not to still get some on me. I'm wondering what do you think would be my chance of getting pregant would be. I look on a site that said that same day would be when i should be ovualating. But he never came in me.

Well, the bad news is that you played around, without a condom on, during your most fertile time of the month. Meaning of all the times you are most likely to become pregnant, that was the time you had sex.
The good news is that he pulled out. Many times people hear that the "pulling out" method does not protect against pregnancy, but this is not true. Pulling out is better than ejaculating (aka cumming) inside someone if there are no other birth control methods being used. For example, if 100 people have sex and just use the "pull out" method, 25 of those couples would become pregnant. It's not the most relible method out there, but it sure is better than just ejaculating in someone.
If this happens again, please remember that there is the Morning After Pill available. Sometimes it is called Emergency Contraceptive (EC)which is a better name for it as it can prevent pregnancy from occuring for 5 days after the unprotected sex occured. All you have to do is call your local Planned Parenthood by dialing
1-800-230-PLAN (by calling this number it will contect you to the nearest Planned Parenthood anywhere in the US) and follow the prompts. Remember, EC PREVENTS a pregnancy from occuring and the faster you get it in your body the more effective it is. If you are pregnant and you take it you will NOT end the pregnancy and there will be no harm done to the fetus.
