Girlfriend 3 days late and freaking out!

Question - (11 December 2010) 4 Answers - (Newest, 11 December 2010)
A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hi, I am 18 years old dating my girlfriend of 19. Last month she got her period on the 8th. Between then and now we had sex once with protection on and I didn't ejaculate inside her. We checked the condom afterwards and there was no hole or a tear. She's 3 days late on her period and thinks she might be pregnant even though I'm almost 100% sure she's not. My girlfriend has anxiety problems and panics easily, shes a bit of a hypochondriac. She says that pre- ejaculatory fluids could also impregnate her. But even when I put the condom on I was completely dry. She also thinks that when we messed a round a couple times and I semi penetrated her with my boxers over my penis and her shorts over her vagina that I might have gotten wet and that could maybe cause her to get pregnant. She says maybe her shorts slid enough to where I could have really slipped in but I'm almost positive that that couldn't have caused her to get pregnant. I was hoping that someone out there could maybe help me with some information to show her so she could relax more. She's had really bad cramps but no bleeding. She also has pmdd or pre menstrual dysphoric disorder. She also, right after her period went on a diet and has lost an incredible amount of weight. So please help me out, thank you!

PS

When you say you checked the condom for holes etc after sex - does that mean you took it off while you were still undressed and close ?

If so you could easily have got some semen on fingers and touched them (or maybe your still wet penis ) to her labia ..... that could easily have got her pregnant if it was her time of the month to ovulate.

It only needs one sperm [ out of hundreds of millions produced every time you ejaculate ] to get her pregnant so boxers etc or no she could be.

But it's not the end of the world. Check with a preg test from pharmacy or doctor's office. If she is check again to confirm and if confirmed get pill abortion pronto.

Whether she is or isn't take the scare as a warning and ask her to go on the contraceptive pill asap. Combine that with condoms every time and you are as protected against pregnancy as it's possible to be [ while still being sexually active of course ].

DrPsych agony auntDiet can disrupt periods, particularly if it is a drastic one. Women with eating disorders often have no periods for months or years at a time. You don't sound like you have done anything that puts her at high risk of pregnancy. However, since she is late then you can buy a cheap pregnancy test from a pharmacy and the answer will take a few minurtes of your time! Surely this is better than stressing out. Stress and anxiety can also influence periods so maybe she needs to make an appointment with her doctor to discuss that.

I lost weight a couple of years ago, and as a result, didn't have a period for several months! Your cycle is really sensitive to changes in weight. It really does sound like you are worrying over nothing, if she has got pregnant from what you have described, then I would be very very surprised. If I were her I would wait a few more days, and if her period has still not started, I would take a pregnancy test to put my mind at ease. If she isn't pregnant, as I strongly suggest she isn't, I would suggest she sees a doctor to make sure that she is still a healthy weight and to investigate why her period isn't happening, although it isn't uncommon to miss a period altogether from time to time.
