I apologise if this extends the 25 word limit but i am totally freaked out!!!! Towards the beginning of June i was sexually assaulted. He tried to remove my clothing, was unable to do so but somehow lead to him dry humping me over my clothing. I had no underwear on at the time though due to their being a lump on the very edge of my leg. He also had suit trousers on (don't know about undergarments). I do not remember seeing any stains BUT i know that my leggings were wet!! I do not know whether this is from my own vaginal fluid or something went through). Have taken multiple HPTs. All which are negative but because of my cycle being so irregular i do not know when i can really go about taking the test for and trust a reading.
I did not even think at the time about pregnancy. My biggest concern was to get him away from me. Its only after it clicked and i started to 'google' and read about so many different stories that it is possible and me not having my underwear on at the time made me think that my genitals were not exactly protected at the time and what if i was ovulating. Out of fear i started to take Microgynon 30 my GP prescribed me (not a regular because not sexually active anyway). I had misinformation about this and thought i had to take it only for a week, then your period starts and did not know i had to take it for 21 days. Anyway, my period did come (i think). The reason i say i think is because i only took it for 7 days but the bleeding did not follow my normal course. Was very light and hardly any cramps. Did this again last month and the same thing happened. Now i do not know whether it is my menstrual cycle, implantation or bleeding because i stopped the pill.
I have quite a few pregnancy symptoms which i do not know i am creating in my head or are real . The frequent urination has been diagnosed as an urine infection and now i have swollen breasts, at times by sides feel inflamed and i can swear i can feel something doing summer sults in my stomach. I don't know if all these symptoms are in my head or real. I have done close to 70 HPT's which are all saying negative (most with FMU and others with taking a long time to urinate so it becomes concentrated) but i keep feeling that what if i'm one of those people who wont know until later on or develops HCG later and i've read that some women do not even know until they're further along their pregnancy. Is there any risk of pregnancy in the situation i described??? I apologise for the length of this message and your views and honesty will much be appreciated because at the moment i feel like everything in my life is a lie.

Hello Emma K,
August 1, 2015 - 8:04pmFirst of all, there is NO possible chance that you could be pregnant.
Even if sperm somehow got through his pants, and yours, then onto your legs, it cannot somehow travel under your pants, into your vagina, past your cervix, and impregnate you. It is simple not possible, or how the science works.
The ONLY way to become pregnant is if a man ejaculates into your vagina during penetration. The ejaculation process is important because it sends the sperm swimming past the cervix.
I repeat: you CANNOT become pregnant from this event.
Taking the birth control pills was unnecessary. Birth control pills do not act as emergency contraception. You must take them completely and as instructed for them to give you a regular period and/or prevent pregnancy.
They contain hormones, and when you stop taking them in sends the message to your body to have a period. Since you did not take the pills for all 21 days, your hormones were confused and you could not have a full period.
Since you hormones are off balanced, you will experience PMS symptoms which always mimic pregnancy symptoms. You are NOT pregnant.
You can relax.

Thank-you for your reply Faith
(He was humping either on my lower abdomen, or just below that- cant really remember)-
That makes sense but why have so many people said it is possible?
I think i have a crazy image of just his ejaculation fluid seeping through and somehow mixing with my fluid =| - will the same rule apply if my area was wet due to vaginal fluid and if my leggings were wet?
I just need to get this out of my head so i can deal with getting back up on my feet and achieving my confidence again- with flashbacks and additional stress about pregnancy is always in my head
