Hi! (: i'm an 18 year old girl with some curious mind :B
I'm a very regular when it comes to my cycle, and by regular i'll say extremely regular!! It even scares me to find out that is exactly 28 days :O
Because of that, i tend to feel a little relaxed about having sexual activity in the latest days, ya know... 21,22 and so on ... now my 2 questions :O?
It is this normal to be so regular at such a young age :O? cuz i tend to thought that only "not so young" ladies had it this way :'0
And my second question is that if it's quite secure to have sex in the last days of my cicle, i mean the last week to be exact?
We always use condoms and stuff... but i just want to be quite sure that there is no anatomic possibility in getting pregnant :O
please, i will love to read any answer :B
There are some women who are very irregular and some who are very regular. When women begin to menstruate they tend to have more fluctuations in their cycle and it will stabilize more over time. There is no right or no wrong answer to that one. I am the same, regular as clockwork right down to it began on my 13th b-day. So one day off would panic me.
What you do not know, regardless of the regularity of your cycle is when you ovulate. I would never depend on a "good time of the month" to be safe unless you are not concerned with pregnancy or are planning one in the near future.
The only times in my life I have done as you have was when I was married and it was okay for a pregnancy to occur. I read your other post, use the condoms and use a spermicide jelly or VCF. Or consider going on the pill and using condoms.
Thank you for your answer, however something that i dont' understand is that you say that it' s still dangerours if we do this with condom? cuz we do used one :/ i was just wondering if adding condom to a "possible good time of the month" could decrease pregnancy risk :), i mean... by logic it must be less dangerous than havin sex with condom in your 14 day :O or no?
Adding a condom anytime of the cycle decreases the risk, adding spermicide further decreases the risk.
Day 14 or day 22 you are still at the same level of risk since you are banking on ovulating mid-cycle and you can not be certain when you ovulate. Too risky to play around. If ovulation was so certain many women would not have such issues getting pregnant!
What happens if you ovulate on day 22?
Well, you're right :O i follow your advice and bought some of that jelly you mentioned :B hope to be ok with that (;
all i know here is that my gf is not that regular. This sometimes scares me even though i wear condoms.

here here... few months ago my gf was 3 weeks late then her period lasted like 2 weeks.. it was like she skiped last month and had 2 months that month.. if that makes sense... was weird..... boy was i worrying... turned out fine as she has had 2 periods since then but even so... i also wear protection every time.
ok well i get my period when it decides to come, sometimes i dont get it for a couple of months, but then when i get it, it lasts for about a month lol. your lucky to be regular...trust me i wish i was. its fine that your regular.
