Think this wicked man got me pregnant

Dear Pastor,

I am 23 and I was forced to have sex with a man. I did not plan to have sex with him, but it happened, and the following morning, I told one of the women what had happened at the house.

She told me that the only suggestion that she could make is that I try and 'douche out' the sperm. She told me what to do and I tried that, but now I am missing my period and I am scared to death that I might be pregnant. This man who forced himself on me and had sex with me is not my boyfriend. I did not tell my boyfriend what happened. I am so worried. Please give me your advice

Dear Writer,

The person who told you that douching can wash out sperm misled you. Having sex and trying to douche afterward will not prevent any woman from becoming pregnant.

It is unfortunate that you listened to such nonsense. After you have sex, sperm would have travelled beyond the reach of the douche fuel. All I am trying to say, douching does not help to prevent pregnancy. Check with your doctor to find out whether you are pregnant.
