I'm really anxious about making sure everything's safe before getting married and I want to be extra careful about not getting pregnant right now. Could you give me some advice on what precautions we should take? And, just in case, if I do end up getting pregnant, what should I do next? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

For premarital safe sex and pregnancy prevention, consider the following: use condoms (malefemale) consistently and correctly, explore other contraceptive methods like birth control pills, patches, rings, or IUDs after consulting a healthcare provider; if pregnancy occurs unintentionally, options include: 1) continuing the pregnancy and preparing for parenthood, 2) adoption, or 3) medical termination of pregnancy (MTP) within the legal timeframe and under medical guidance; prioritize open communication, mutual respect, and informed decision-making with your partner.
