Question
me and my GF had Intercourse on 12th April'09, and i used Condom, but she did not use any oral contraceptive. and the same day she bled post coitus, and her periods also overlapped with the bleeding. this time her periods were due arnd 7-8 th may. But bleeding hasnt startd as yet. and we had intercourse on 6th of may as well.now, we are doubtful that has pregnancy happened? and if it has happened can we get it aborted?? is thatsafe and is it possible to hide it from everyone?...i mean the abortion?

Answer
Dear Anuj,
The best thing to do is to buy a pregnancy test in a pharmacy.  She can take one herself by testing her urine.  If she is pregnant, you can email me again and we can discuss your options.  
Good luck!
