Question
I was on bc for about 4 years. I stopped taking it in November because it was making me sick. I got my period Nov 13. My boyfriend and I have only had sex about 4 times since then and everytime with a condom, 2 times he didn't even ejaculate into the condom when inside of me. I haven't gotten my period again but I've been getting menstral cramps, do you think I'm pregnant?

Answer
Hi Lyndsey,

Thanks for your question. I'm not a medical professional so please check with your doctor. It is possible that you could be pregnant. Even if you have had sex only one time, it's possible. You can get pregnant using a condom and you can also get pregnant from pre-cum. The best thing would be for you to contact http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP to find a free pregnancy testing center. Contact them and see when to get the free test. Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and let me know what happens.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
