writes: Possibly pregnant-but don't know how to find out..I'm a 20 year old university student who recently had intercourse with my boyfriend. Due to medical issues I can't take birth control and he can't use condoms. We have been using the pull out method(yes I know there are risks). Two weeks ago-he didn't quite pull out fast enough.I am now worried about pregnancy and though neither of us expected a child at this moment-we would be able to love and care for it.I should mention that due to medical issues my menstrual cycle is extremely irregular(in fact-I was on medication that suppressed my menstrual cycle for over a year=no periods at all up until this past December.)So how long should I wait to get tested and by which method considering the irregularities of my menstrual cycle?We use the pull out method for birth control but now I'm worry I might be pregnant!

L-Help is verified as being by the original poster of the questionI would like to clarify that he is in fact allergic to latex, polyurethane condoms(latex-free alternative) as well as lubricants. ....He's allergic to some very bizarre things all of which have been confirmed by his parents so no-he's not making it up.
As for the copper IUD- I have previously asked my doctors(family practitioner and gynecologist) about different methods of birth control and none were recommended due to the nature of my medical conditions.
I really do appreciate your feedback and suggestions and would like to note that if I still haven't started my menstruel cycle by the end of the week I will be taking a pregnancy test-I just dont know how efective it will be.

The pull out method is a terrible idea! There's always some sperm coming out before even ejaculating!

A doctor will be the best to tell you if you're pregnant. Why can't he use condoms? If he's allergic to latex then there are non-latex ones. There's also the copper IUD for you. The pull-out method is not effective for this very reason. You need to use a condom if you can't take hormonal birth control. No glove, no love!

Yes your probably pregnant. Take a test
