Question
Is+it+true+that+a+reason+to+not+getting+pregnant+could+be+because+of+stress+during,+before,+and+after+sex%3F

Answer
Dear Angel+sturdivant,

No.  Think of how stressful the lives of cave people were.  They had to worry about getting killed and eaten every day.  They still had sex and got pregnant.

If you had unprotected sex and it was less than 3 or 4 days ago, get Plan B Emergency Contraception at a drug store.  It works up to 5 days after sex to prevent pregnancy.

Good luck,

Deb
