 I am so relieved for you! I bet you are so glad you are not pregnat. Although he used a condom, it doesn't stop you being paranoid and worried though does it?! Done enough of that myself.

As I said I have had so irregular periods in my time, even from two weeks apart to 6 weeks apart. I remembe we hadn't known eachother long, and I was 2 weeks late. I was naturally worried and it was all I could think about, despite using condom each time. I went for a pregnancy test at the family planning (no cost). I got my period the next day, so I felt silly worrying.
I wouldn't let your Mum know, after all you are still young and under 16.

reader, anonymous, writes (6 June 2008): This is verified as being by the original poster of the questionI started my period a month before my 13th birthday. I'm 15 and a half now.
It's been 37 days today since the start date of my last period, which lasted for 7 days. I lost my virginity the week after.
I want to talk with my mum, but I dont want her knowing about losing my virginity. I greatly regret it, but she would go hysterical with me. I am 98% positive that i'm not pregnant, as i've had no sickness, spotting, he didn't come, he used a condom at all times. I feel absolutely fine. If I aren't on by next Friday (13th.. unlucky?) then I'll buy one just for peice of mind. If it turns out negative though, i'll still be worried.
Is it was normal to have monthly gaps inbetween your periods after you've had them for nearly 3 years?
I'm just worried about my period because i've never missed it, i've always just been a couple of days early/late, and now it's been over a week so it's very worrying. I just don't understand why i'm not on my period.
I'm too nervous to go and see the doctor, I feel ashamed of myself, and would be extremely embarassed unless my mum was with me.
I really don't know what to do. Thanks for all your advice.

Losing your virginity itself wouldnt make you late, sometimes having sex around your period can actually make your period come a bit earlier. How long have you been having periods?? My daughter started at 10 and even now at 16 she is not regular and can go 5 or 6 weeks in between, she has also had several episodes of several month gaps.
I would wait another week and if it hasnt arrived get a pregnancy test done if only for your peace of mind. You say he didnt come and used a condom anyway but if he put it inside you before the condom went on there is always the slight chance of pre-cum so just be extra careful x

I have been prone to irregular periods by nature, and I wouldn't have said that loosing my virginity had anything to do with it.
If you used condoms, then I am sure you will be fine, although it is a worry isn't it.
