[QUOTE=SmilingInside]is it true that u cant get pregnant the first time u have sex...or is there a lower chance of getting pregnant?? especially if he doesnt cum in u[/QUOTE]
How does the body know it is the first time, the second, or the tenth, eleventh, or the eighty eighth time a woman has engaged in intercourse?
In addition to the the information in the previous post, is the fact that teens are the most apt to become pregnant. Why? Hormones and carelessness.
Keeping in mind what LA said, above, the chances vary throughout the month.
The greatest liklihood of a woman conceiving is on the day of ovulation.
Sperm can live in the woman's body for up to five days. This being the case, it is possible to have sex about three days prior and three days after ovulation and be pretty sure that if no protection is used she will most likely conceive. This span is referred to as the woman's fertile period. In a normal 28 day cycle, the egg is released on day 14. The problem for teens is that cycles often do not become regular for a few years. So, they will vary in length quite a bit. When a cycle does settle down it can have a span between 23 and 35 days.
The importance of what LA said is that while unusual, it is possible for a person to ovulate during her period. There is truth to the statement that any time you have sex, it is possible to become pregnant, especially if one or both of you do not know when to expect ovulation.
I have said this before and it is worth repeating. A couple should consider the penis as a loaded cannon that shoots live ammunition! Be careful where you point it and be careful when and where you discharge it.
Even though initial precum does not contain any sperm, it will in subsequent appearances after an orgasm. Here, too, it is best to always treat the fluid as shark infested water. Pulling out is no guarantee of safety.
A couple issues: There is some indication that the first time is more frequently unprotected than subsequent acts. This actually raises the likelihood of "first time" pregnancies.
The male genito-urinary system ALWAYS contains sperm. During sexual arousal, this increases because eager sperm are trying to get out to find the egg. Any fluid from the penis - urine, pre-cum, semen - contains sperm and can cause pregnancy.
Everytime you have sex, there is a chance of pregnancy.
