reader, anonymous, writes (28 January 2010): No judgements here please. I would first get tested, and get your partner tested. Then, I would stop having unprotected sex, you're only 18, but at only 18 you're considered an adult. Get on the pill, go to a clinic, it's free. Do not EVER put yourself in a situation you know you won't be able to handle. I'm not trying to be mean about this, but if you have to ask this question of "worry" I don't even think you should be engaging in sexual activity.
If you get pregnant, what will you do?
Have to carry a baby, which has a heart beat after 6 weeks? And give labor?
Or abort, which is a painful thing to do, even if on sedatives?
I think you need to do what everyone and I are advising for your own health and well being, but also to grow up.
You only have one life to live and you don't want to screw it on an unwanted/unplanned pregnancy or an STD, that can really mess things up in your life. You are young, you have plenty of time to have sex, have children.
Start by becoming an adult.
Hope this helped!

I think you are trying to get pregnant so I marry you. That's not fair. If its meant to happen then you shouldn't push it. Things will only end up badly.

 It's possible you have an infection with no symptoms and that has caused you to be infertile. I think the best person to ask this question is your gynecologist when you are being examined. You should tell the doctor the bit about unprotected sex for over a year. That will get her (or his) attention and you'll be carefully examined for causes of infertility.
So, yes, it is a reason to worry.
Take care of your body, you only get the one. Good luck.

What you should be worried about is the fact that you are having unprotected sex and risking pregnancy at your age and with someone who has not indicated that they want a baby with you. If you get pregnant then what? Are you trying to trap him? Does he know you are not on the Pill?
With regards to your fertility, its possible that there may be a fertility problem.. Most fertility doctors would say after 12 to 18 months of unprotected sex is when you should be concerned. But with today's technology you will be able to solves most problems related to this. But its often best to try for a baby with someone who is fully in agreement and even better if you have a committment.

Yes. Maybe you've been lucky. Or maybe there is a problem. So go to the doctor and get checked and use protection from now on.

Yes, you should be worried that you're not on birth control and not having protected sex. Are you crazy? Either A) You're lucky and when your eggs are released there hasn't been any sperm present. This could be by chance or perhaps you only have one ovary working so you only ovulate every other month. B) You're infertile. C) He's sterile. Or D) You or he is a hermaphrodite.
Go to the doc, get checked, and get one some contraceptive in case your luck runs out.

 Firstly... do you actually want to fall pregnant?
Some people try for months and even years to fall pregnant. He might just have a low sperm count or maybe he is sterile. You might be sterile to. There's also a possibility you haven't done it whilst your ovulating, in which case you wouldn't fall pregnant.
