my girlfriend has been on it for awhile, and im just curious to know if Ortho Tri-Cyclen is a good bithcontrol pill. Just to make me a little bit more comfortable in knowing we’re well protected
she’s well protected about 99% but to be 100% you should still wear a condom
I’m supposed to be ovulating today or tomorrow and I had sex tonight and he was wearing a condom. Just wondering what the chances are of getting pregnant. Thanks!
well its a 98% chance you could get pregnant while using a condom …….. so if you used 100 condoms 2 of dem wouldnt work you get what im saying …… but yea dont worry its about its pretty unlikey
I’m 39 weeks pregnant and go to the doctor tomorrow, I’m thinking about asking her to strip my membranes to see if it helps progress along the labor at all.
I’m just curious what your ladies experiences are with getting your membranes stripped, did it work, did it not…did it hurt, etc. Thanks everyone!
Well, it hurt a bit more than a usual cervical check, but nothing that can’t be handled by gritting your teeth a bit.
I had it done twice. First time, I spent the day with contractions 3 minutes apart. This lasted 24 hours, then fizzled out. A week later, she did it again, and sent me home to take some castor oil. My water broke at 7 AM the next day. So, it kind of helped for me, but I know for a lot of women it doesn’t do anything. It’s worth a shot though, in my opinion.
Is there any way to pick a new chief? This one is completely useless.
No, there’s no way to remove someone from being chief. They’re chief for life.
I guess there’s not much you can do about her getting pregnant while the game is off, but once she’s 50 years old she can’t get pregnant anymore, and also if you max out your population she can’t get pregnant again until there’s more room in the tribe.
Female chiefs can be really annoying, I agree. I had one that must have had ten kids or something. She never worked at all.
My LMP was 1-11-09 I will start ovulating this week. I’m scared cause me and my boyfriend bd late last night and now i’m having UTI symptoms. I’ve called my dr to get it taken care of asap but it makes me think it will lesson my chances this month to fall pregnant.
TO THE 1ST ANSWER YOUR VERY STUPID CAUSE A UTI IS NOT A STD DUMMY.
I don’t Think UTI lesson’s the chance of getting pregnant,I heard UTI’s are more common during pregnancy because of changes in the urinary tract. The uterus sits directly on top of the bladder. As the uterus grows, its increased weight can block the drainage of urine from the bladder, causing an infection.Drink plenty of water and cranberry juice it worked for me!hope this helps!take care hun!
So me and my husband did it last night and he pulled-out yes I know not a method but so smart comments please. And then half an hour later did it again and he pulled out again but hadn’t been to the toilet in between. What are the chances of me getting pregnant, I am on the12 day of my cycle. Thanks
Very likely!
Okay so i had sex the second day of my period & my boyfriend didnt pull out at all (he let sperm inside me) he did that 3 times & my period last like 5 days. Whats my chances of getting pregnant?
No No AND noooooooooooo
We tried for YEARS to have a baby and then I came across a book at a garage sale that changed our lives. It was all about "Apple Cider Vinegar" (the author found that it worked so well for animals that it should work on humans too – and testimonials proved it) so what did I have to loose. I drank 1-2 Tbs.of Cider Vinegar 2-3 times a day in water alone or with honey. It doesn’t taste great, but I was willing to try anything. Well I almost jumped off the Dr’s table when he said I was pregnant about 6 months later.That was 32 years ago and had a second child 4 years later – I mentioned this to another lady years later that had said they had given up hopes of having a family – well believe it or not she ended up having a real healthy baby. Don’ know whether it was from the Apple Cider Vinegar or not, but it sure sounds like it because we had both given up on our dreams and both had healthy babies. It’s worth checking out – best of luck to you – We KNOW the empty feeling!!!! (this has something to do with the acidity/alkalinity of the sperm or something)— it came from a book on "Vermont Folk Medicine"
How can/what can I do to increase my chances of getting pregnant quickly or on the 1st try? How can I know if Im even able to get pregnant?
The odds of any healthy, young couple in any given month for getting pregnant are around 20-25%. All you can do is have sex and keep yourself healthy. Know your fertile days, maybe get some ovulation tests so you know when you ovulate and have sex on those days. Don’t stress about it. But not everybdoy gets pregnant the first try. It took my husband and I 5 months to get pregnant. Some women can take years to get pregnant. They say if you don’t get pregnant within a year to see a doctor to test for any fertility issues.. Until then just have fun trying.
and/or getting pregnant with multiples?
The success rate depends on your diagnosis, your body’s response to treatment, and your doctor’s track record.
Both IVF and taking fertility drugs without doing IVF carry a higher risk of multiple births.
