Might be pregnant?
Okay, so I had sex last night with my boyfriend, and we didn't use any kind of protection. I'm usually on the pill, but missed a couple at the beginning of the month so I decided to take a break from it and start taking it when the next package starts, so that I won't get too off track. My question is, could it be very likely that I would get pregnant? I'm supposed to start my period in two days, which means I had sex after my ovulation days. And if I am pregnant, would I still miss my next period? I feel like two days would be too soon to tell and I'd start my period anyway. But I am completely confused.

It is possible that you are pregnant. If you dont want your parents to know, then go to planned parenthood. You can also contact your doctor, which I would strongly reccommend.

Unfortunately, not every woman ovulates on "day 14" or mid-way through their cycle. There is actually a fairly decent chance that you ovulate late in your cycle. I, personally, actually ovulate late in my cycle so the odds of me getting pregnant right before my period is due is MUCH greater than me getting pregnant at any other time in my cycle. How do you find out when you typically ovulate? 6 months of over-the-counter home ovulation tests taken every single day with your first morning urine. Be ready to dish out some cash.
So, personally, I have about a 26 day cycle, but ovulate on my day 20.
There are women who actually ovulate while on their periods, right after having a period, or right before they begin a period. Some women will have fluctuating ovulation dates (some months they won't ovulate while other months they may ovulate multiple times; some months they ovulate early while other months they ovulate mid-way; etc.).
The mid-way through the cycle thing is "average" but average doesn't mean always or for every single woman.
There are also many variations in cycles. Stress and hormonal imbalances are huge factors. For example:
This past month I was SO stressed out over the possibility of a new job that I had my period on my day 20 of my cycle. Now, if I actually ovulated as usual (on my day 20) then I actually ovulated on the same day I began my period! I, of course, cannot be for-sure though so I didn't take the ovulation tests last month since I hadn't expected any major changes until much later on in the month.
If you became pregnant from this encounter then you'd probably still have your period this month since it's so close.
Remember, sperm can survive in the vaginal and uterus area for days. Some have been found alive after 1 full week from ejaculation. It only takes ONE of those to get you pregnant. So, while you may not be pregnant now, tomorrow, or even 3 days later, it doesn't mean you won't become pregnant from this particular encounter. See what I'm saying?
Any way, after fertilization occurs it takes about another week for the egg to attach to the uterine wall, and yet another week after the attachment for it to produce enough hCG (pregnancy hormone) to be detected on a home pregnancy test. So, you're looking at a couple of weeks at the very earliest before your body would even begin making changes to adjust to the pregnancy.
Unprotected sex means you're risking the chances of getting pregnant. Any time you have sex without any form of protection then you are taking a great risk.
If you don't want to get pregnant then you need, absolutely NEED, to use protection. Any protection you can get your hands on is better than none at all. Condoms, spermicidal foams and lubricants, and things like the sponge are extremely affordable, make wonderful back-up methods, are convenient for quick usage, and can be found all over the place (including gas stations).

yes there is a chance you could be pregnant.. but it is wayyy to soon for you to be able to tell. With both of my pregnancy i didnt find out i was prenant until i was 5-6 weeks pregnant. my second one took longer to find out i had alot of trouble getting pregnant.you may get your first period it may be a little diff or the same wait 5 weeks or longer and take a test to be on the safe side.
