Hi, Sonali,

Sexual intercourse is described as when the man's penis actually enters the woman's vagina. Is that what you describe as "sleeping with" ?

There are other forms of sexual activity that are not intercourse -- heavy petting, for instance, and/or stimulation of each other's genitals by mouth or hand. But it is considered intercourse when the penis actually enters the vagina. Does that help?

The one precaution you can take on your own, right now, is to buy condoms. You are good to think about taking responsibility for your own body, and condoms will help prevent an unwanted pregnancy or a sexually transmitted disease. They are not perfect, but they are very good if you use them correctly.

How old are you? Can you get to a doctor or to a clinic by yourself or with a friend?
