Katy. agony auntGet straight to the doctors/cliniqe to take the morning after pill as soon as possible as the others as said, and i'd advise you get some condoms o keep at his place just incase next time, or if your doing it quite alot going on the pill would be really useful.

I have to admit, i've done this many of times with my boyfriend and i'm not on the pill, so far so good but its like a 50/50 chance each time and its the worst feeling ever when you think he might not have pulled out in time, at the end of the day its better to be safe than sorry, thats what i've learned.

Jmo agony auntI just reread my post and in my second paragraph what I meant to say was that I don't condone sex without birth control, not "I don't sex without birth control". Oops!

Jmo agony auntThere's not really a lot you can do right now besides taking the morning after pill. The thing is, you have to take it 48-72 hours (don't quote me on that) after sex and it apparently has painful side effects. You can get it at planned parenthood. They gave them to my little sister when she was 16 after she had her abortion.

And while I don't sex without birth control, I myself have been sexually active since I was even younger than you (I'm 25 now) and when it comes to sex with my boyfriends I admittedly do not use protection and rely on the "pull out". I know how dumb it is but I haven't been pregnant yet. That doesn't mean it won't happen. Don't stress out too much but try and get the morning after pill asap and take this as a learning experience. I've had a lot of friends and family go through this so feel free to send me a message if you'd like. Best of luck.

pietry agony auntThere isn't much you can actually do, except pray for the worst not to happen. Wait some time and take a pregnancy test, and make this a lesson for the future.

Usually a vaginal cleaning/washing can help but that just after having sex so in your case it's too late. It also depends on your period if you were in the fertile days or not

A female reader, anonymous, writes (2 January 2009):

Tell your mother to take you to a doctor for an examination and to find out if it is safe for you to have the morning after pill. This can be bought over the counter but the pharmasist by law has to ask you certain questions. The morning after pill is around 25 pounds. This really is the only thing you can do to avoid possible pregnancy but even this is not 100% effective. May I also suggest that you put yourself on the pill if you are going to have regular sex and also use condoms to avoid sexually transmitted disease.

Im not lecturing you but having sex carries certain responsibilities and dealing with an unwanted pregnancy is a very serious matter and involves a lot more than logging into an agony aunt site for some or other way to cover your tracks. You are also under the legal age to have sex in the UK so you could be exposing yourself or your partner to possible prosecution.

Its time to grow up and wise up. I hope you get it sorted.

I work in maternity and have seen many teenagers give birth, it's not pleasant.
