My mate had unprotected sex last tuesday. I have tryed persuading her to go see a doctor or buy a test but shes says no. She thinks she not pregnant because she said she would have morning sickness by now. She doesnt know if he ejaculated. I'm really worried about her and don't know what to do. Can anyone help?

Your mate is very lucky to have you as her friend. It sounds to me as though you are more concerned about a possible pregnancy than she is. If she only had unprotected sex a week ago & is in the early stages of pregnancy, it is highly unlikely that she would be having morning sickness already, although everyone is different. She now has to wait to see if she misses her period, if so, you can only do your best to encourage her to do a pregnancy test, as soon as is practicable. If she isn't already pregnant, let's hope she sees your concerns as a warning & uses protection next time - that's if she is old enough to be having a sexual relationship.  Good luck.

Having unprotected intercourse last Tuesday puts her beyond the window of emergency contraception, so if she is pregnant, there is little that can be done now. The odds are that she is not, but only the arrival of her next period as normal will for the most part settle the argument.

Morning sickness can appear at different times and stages during the preganancy (and not at all in some cases) so her confidence is mislaplaced. If her next period is late or overdue, a test should be bought from the chemist before a visit to her GP.

What is more worrying is the disregard for protection against STI's. Many sexually transmitted infections are on the rise at this point in time so there is reason to be careful. People will always have sex they regret, but there is no excuse for not using protection. If your friend is young, I am sure her parents would rather she was sexually active regularly but carefully, rather than occasionally but without protection. They probably are realistic enough to know that she will be expermineting anyway.

She should consider the history of the individual she slept with and seek advice from the local GUM clinic (look it up in the phone book), her Doctor, practice nurse or NHS direct if she is in any doubt. The tests are not embarrasing or invasive, and they are CONFIDENTIAL, so nobody finds out, not even parents.

Be careful out there people!
Lie's, non-truth and propaganda, you just wait 9 months and you'll see. BTW i will close the matter with a �15 unsigned cheque.
She could try having a coil fitted, as far as emergency contraception goes, this can be effective after a longer period of time

There's also another test to be done. It's called a HIV test. There is no cure for having HIV and it can lead onto AIDS. NEVER have unprotected sex.
