Another stupid teen pregnancy question...


Question Posted Monday March 15 2010, 5:01 pm

17/F and my boyfriend is the same, except male. We've been. Going out for just over a year. Ok, backstory complete.

First off, if you're here to berate or belittle me, please leave. I'm scared enough as it is. Also, don't tell me I'm too young to be having sex. I'm in very stable and loving relationship in which we always take the proper precautions. Secondly, please don't ask me to go see my doctor. That's not an option for me...

I hope that didn't sound too mean! But, here's what happened: I got my period on the 12th (right on schedule). It was super light, like at the beginning of every one of my periods. It's usually light for the first two days and then on the third day it gets pretty heavy. Alright, so, on the 13th I woke up and my period was kind of gone. I thought this was a bit weird, but I didn't really worry too much about this. My boyfriend came over that same night and we had sex with a condom. I guess somewhere in the middle the condom broke and my boyfriend finished in me. We didn't find out until after. Now, normally I would be really scared. However, I thought I had started my period. I know when you have your period, you can still get pregnant... but it's rare, and I felt ok about it. Well, on the 14th my period didn't come back and today, the 15th, it didn't come back either. I'm extremely confused and very worried. Something's not right. Could I be pregnant? How likely is it that I am? And if I am, do you guys have any advice for telling my parents? Thanks so much in advance! Xoxox

Well if it's still within 3 days of the "unprotected" sex then go to the pharmacy and see if you can get Plan B. Which is the birth control pill that you can take if your protection fails.
OR
Wait a couple weeks then go to the dollar store and buy a pregnancy test, go home and take it. (Or do as previous respondant said and go to Planned Parenthood.)

As far advice for telling your parents your pregnant if you are point out to them that you were being responsible and using protection but it failed. Hope it alll works out for you.

Well I don't know if I am right but I don't think if you got prego during your period it would effect your current period...it just doesn't make sense to me but I am not a doctor. lol
Yeah I agree though test is about all you can do.
I hope it works out

You can go get a pregnancy test, and I believe planned parenthood will give you a free test without letting your parents know.

If you are pregnant, you just have to be honest with your parents. It's going to be hard but you're their baby and they love you. But I agree! Don't tell unless you know!

The only way you can find out if you are pregnant is to take a pregnancy test.

The chances of getting pregnant while on your period are slim but as you said, it can happen. It could just be that the stress is causing your period to be late. Take a test, and put your mind at rest.

You don't need to worry about telling your parents until you know whether you even need to tell them anything in the first place.
