Help me stop worrying

I've already researched this on the internet and from what I've read, I'm fine. However I have a tendancy to freek out about small things. Like impossible things, things that never happen, but I assume they do.

On girlfriends birthday (5 days ago) we started going at each other, short of being a condom, she gave me a blowjob instead. To clean the mess up, I couldn't find any paper towel or toilet paper, so I grabbed my boxers and started wiping myself up. Unbeknownst to her, I had some of my sperm on my hand, and peticularly my fingers; and she took my hand and placed it on her vag. Realising this, I quickly took my hand away.

Now I know the chances are slim and remote, and I was kinda worried about it the night of, but I was over it until today.

My girlfriend usually has her period around the 20th (she did tell me it fluxuates) but she got her period today instead. I know that light bleeding and cramping are symptoms of pregnancy, and I told her this. Her responce was that "it isn't light, and I know what my periods feel like". I can accept this, and not be worried.

However, it got me thinking. Can she still get pregnant?

I mean, is there a possibility that even though she had her period a week after the incident, that she can/is pregnant?

I know it's stupid, and I know I'm overthinking/worrying about it way too much. But it would be nice to know a solid answer. (I've tried doctors, they're all shut down besides the hospital, and knowing ou hospital, I wouldn't trust it too much)

    She's not pregnant. Or, rather, let me rephrase: her chances of being pregnant are roughly that of being stricken by a falling meteor. Periods fluctuate. especially when women are still young (and also before menopause, or when women are stressed, or sick, or a dozen other things).

    In the future, how about you talk to her about going on birth control?

    I believe it's her period. But there isn't a chance that lingering sperm can impregnate her after this? Or they have already, and this is just an old egg falling out?

    God I sound retarded, but when I get freeked out, I totally freek out.

    I'll help you then.


    NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. NEVER. ZERO POINT ZERO PERCENT CHANCE. DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.



    If your girlfriend is having a period, she isn't pregnant.

    The vagina is actually a fairly hostile environment for sperm. Plus, she's bleeding, which tends to flush them out anyway.

    Stop freaking out.

    Take her to Planned Parenthood and pay for her to get on birth control.

    The odds of her being pregnant are roughly equivalent to your odds of winning the lottery three weeks on the trot. In the event that she is pregnant, you should make sure that you treat the kid really well because chances are it's the Messiah.

    We treated the last Messiah like crap though, and everything turned out okay... right?

    It's always hard to know whether you should worship your son or nail him to a cross.
