Am I worried for no reason?
Hey guys, this is my first post on here and I want to make it clear that I understand how my body works as a young woman. I do my research, but even still, I am anxious and know that anything can happen. I am 18 years old, soon to be 19, and am sexually active. The thing is... I had sex about 3 days ago and while we were having sex, I noticed the condom had broken. And each time it broke, it took us a little bit to realize it had actually broken. We ended up going through all 3 condoms in the box!
I also realized just now that I am in my fertile window, and have a few days left of that. I know it might be silly, but I can’t help but worry about getting pregnant. Don’t get me wrong, as much as I’d LOVE to be a mother, right now is NOT the time for me. As many of you could agree.
Any support is appreciated. I just want to know if any of you have had this same experience and/or know what kind of precautions/actions I should take following that event. I have not yet experienced spotting or cramps, but it’s only been 3 days. To clear any confusion, he did not finish inside of me, but I do still worry about precum. Also, I was not able to take a Plan B so I feel like I am running out of options. I firmly believe in abortion but I would like to do anything I can to prevent that from happening...
Please, if you have any advice, it would be much appreciated! I will make sure to keep you all updated.
all the love
TL;DR: Basically during sex I had to go through 3 condoms because they all broke, and am seeking advice to further prevent pregnancy.
