Answers:

There are always risks, sweetie.. but at least you took precautions in the first place. I personally would say if you are worried about this, get some tests done. In the UK there are family planning clinics at local centres, and it isn't just a place you go to for pregnancies, you can go there to check your sexual health. You'd be able to go there, get tested for pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections and diseases, which are painless and you can leave with the answers. Most clinics have a drop in clinic, where you can go to without an appointment and get tested as soon as. I would say this would be your best option. Good luck!

You can check for your local clinic on this website:

Personal Experience



Not sure if you are asking about pregnancy or STIs. IN terms of pregnancy get the morning after pill, which is OK up to 72 hrs afterwards, but the sooner you take it the better. You can buy for £20 in some pharmacies (ask to speak to the pharmacist in private), or get from a walk in centre or your GP on prescription. The IUS can be used up to 5 days after but involves fitting and an exam so is more intrusive.
In terms of STIs, how about the family planning centre, they often do young peoples sessions. Or see your GP, or go to a GUM clinic. SOme things can be tested by them giving you a swab, which means you go in the loo and swirl it about inside you in private. HIV cannot be tested for until 3 months after unprotected sex. However, if neither of you have done any risky activities in the past 3 months (IV drug use, unprotected sex, tattoo) and you both are tested and clear you ought to be OK.



make an appointment at your local 'special'/GU clinic they'll sort you out.



You better go and talk with your doctor. He/she will know what to do
