Am I pregnant?

Asked by Aproblem22 (4points) March 25th, 2018 from iPhone

My period is late and idk what to do. I never had “It” with a guy, but can masturbation get you pregnant? Like rubbing something between your legs. Or can using a towel around your area another man used get you pregnant, even it was washed? It’s stupid questions but I’m freaking out like nuts because it’s my second year of having my period and I don’t want to be a parent

You are not pregnant if you didn’t have “it” with a guy.

Take a home pregnancy test from the drug store.

Stress, extreme exercise can cause you to miss your period.
And no you can’t get pregnant from masturbation, or using a towel a guy used.
But to risk sounding crude it could happen (,though very rare) if a guy ejaculated all over your private area.
Buy a home pregnancy test kit and put your mind at ease.

You are not pregnant. However you do need sex education classes.

There are a million reasons why your period could be late. If you haven’t had sex then pregnancy is not one of them.

If you haven’t had sex you are not pregnant. No, masturbation can not impregnate you.

If the towel had a man’s sperm on it, and you rubbed it between your legs, there is the slight chance that it could have gotten you pregnant, not likely, but possible.

Your own masturbation of yourself, cannot get you pregnant.

To become pregnant, a man’s sperm must get inside of your vagina, either through actual sex, or by way of accidentally splashing it onto the outside, near the vagina (if the male was masturbating onto you, or close enough to you that some of it could have gotten into your vagina, or by it being transferred into your vagina by means of a sperm-laden towel, or his or your fingers if there was some sperm on them.

You should definitely take a pregnancy test to be certain.

For the future, and for a little peace of mind now, here are the ways to avoid getting pregnant: http://www.momjunction.com/articles/precautions-to-avoid-pregnancy_00183/

Good luck, check back in with us if you need more guidance after you take the pregnancy test.

According to this, you’d need to get close with a very humid and warm towel within minutes of the sperm arrival for that to happen.

Worry not, you are in the clear.
