I'm really worried about something that happened with my friend. Her boyfriend fingered her, and she's freaking out about the possibility of pregnancy. They aren't sure if there might have been anything on his fingers. Can you explain if pregnancy is possible from fingering in this situation?

It is highly unlikely that pregnancy would occur from fingering, as sperm would need to be directly introduced into the vagina for fertilization to happen. However, if there is a possibility that semen was on the fingers and they were introduced into the vagina, it's still a very low risk, but I would recommend speaking to a healthcare provider for further reassurance and guidance.

Question

I'm really curious about Acutret. I heard it's used for contraception and that it makes it difficult or maybe even impossible to conceive while on it. Can you tell me what kind of complications might come with taking Acutret? Like, are there any side effects I should be worried about if I'm considering this medication?

Question

Why have I started experiencing really bad menstrual cramps when my flow seems normal and there's nothing obviously wrong with my body? It's weird because I never had cramps before, and none of the other women in my family, except one aunt, have dealt with this kind of pain. I've had various infections in the past like small intestinal and urinal infections, but those were two years ago, so I'm not sure if there's any connection. It's frustrating because I've seen multiple doctors, and they haven't been able to pinpoint the cause of my problem. Could there be a link between my past infections and these cramps?
