ok so i missed my period and im freaking out because i had sex with a guy and the condom ripped, we were both drunk but as soon as we found out it ripped we stopped. he said he didn't c** but what about pre-c**? anyways if i am pregnant is it possible to get a free abortion from like a walk in clinic? or would i have to dish out like hundreds of dollars to get one?
(i posted in two different forums cuz i don't know where this question belongs)

If you're not sure of where to put a thread, please feel free to PM me and ask. smile Do you mind if I keep this one and delete your other thread?
It is possible to get pregnant from pre-c**, and STIs exist in pre-c** too. Depending on where you live, and what resources are available near you, fee rates for abortion might differ. If you go to Planned Parenthood, I think that they'd probably put you on a sliding scale for payment, unless you're flat broke (not sure how it works, so maybe Lorien or someone else can give a better answer).
I don't think walk-in clinics can do abortions anyways. Chances are you'd have to go to Planned Parenthood or a women's health clinic anyways.
If it's been within 72 hours, you can also try getting Plan B. If it's been more than 72 hours, it's too late and the medication will be useless.
Also, try to relax as much as possible. Stressing out about it can make your period late, which will just stress you out more. If it's more than a week late, you can try taking a pregnancy test or talking to your doctor. Last year I had a period be about 2 weeks late due to stress, and I had thought I was pregnant too.

If your period is late, take a pregnancy test. If you get a negative result and still don't have a period a week later, test again.
If you're not pregnant, you might want to get some hormonal birth control to use in addition to condoms in the future. You should also get tested for STDs just to be safe.
If you are pregnant, you'll have to schedule an appointment with your doctor or a clinic to verify it and talk about your options. Because like Niko said, the details can vary a bit depending on where you live. Not all doctors and clinics do abortions, but they can usually at least refer you to someone who can. They can also talk to you about your financial options and whether or not you would need parental consent to have an abortion.
