Re: PREGNANT!? - March 2nd 2016, 03:54 PM

Typically women ovulate about fourteen days after their period. However, this is not true of everyone, each woman's cycle is slightly different. However, the likelihood that you ovulated a week after your period is not very high. Do you typically ovulate that early in your cycle? How long has this been going on?

Anytime you have unprotected sex it puts you at risk for pregnancy. So your best bet would be to take a pregnancy test. You can take one fourteen days after you had sex, taking it any sooner could result in a false negative. Pregnancy tests can be purchased over the counter at any grocery store or pharmacy.

Whether or not you are pregnant should not effect your ability to play basketball safely. Just keep to your normal routine until you can take a test.

In the future, if you are looking to avoid pregnancy you need to use some form of birth control. Condoms can be purchased pretty much anywhere. However the most effective forms of birth control like the pill, will require a visit to your doctor. They can go over what your best options are for your body.

The only way to completely avoid the chance of getting pregnant is to refrain from having vaginal sex. There are other ways to be intimate with your partner that will result in an orgasm, but not a pregnancy.
