A female United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

Ok well hi, I just want to know if I should get a pregnancy test or not. im 17 and I lost my virginity on July 8th. I had sex 3 times that day WITH a condom, then once more on july 11th with a condom. They didn't break or have any holes that we could see. But my period was due around july 22nd but I got it on july 27th and it only lasted 3 days, it was alot heavier then usual. I usually have a medium flow and it lasts about 6 days. Then I had unprotected sex (stupid :[) on July 31st the day after I got off my period, he came inside of me. Im sorry, I know im retarded. Please NO comments about having unprotected sex, please :[.

The unprotected sex on the 31st probably will not get you pregnant since you were at day 5 (day one is the first day of you period). The unprotected sex on the 8th is very dangerous though because it is right in the middle. I can't tell you for sure because I don't know how long your typical cycle is, but day 13 is usually when women are ovulating. A bit of advise, start watching your vaginal discharch. You are ovulating when you discharch a clear substance. Also you will generally be more sexually aroused (it's natuaral because your body is releasing hormones during ovulation). Go to a clinic this Friday to take a prgnancy test. Take another test on Aug. 22 to be sure. You could still be ovulating (like I said since I don't know your cycle, I can't say for sure) because you are most fertile for 24 hours. So having sex 1 day before ovulation and 1 day after ovulation is still risky. Hope this helps. Look up information about pregnancy to find out more about how your period and ovulation works.

I'm not going to lecture you or anything but next time, wear a condom :)

I would wait until for 3-4 days and if your period has not come by that time, go to the pharmacy and buy a pregnancy test (2 pack).

Take the test when you get home to see the result but also take the second test the following day at the same time.

If you get 2 negatives it is most likely you are not pregnant.

2 positives and you are most likely to be pregnant. Go to see your doctor if this is the case.

If you get 1 positive and 1 negative, either buy yourself another pregnancy test or consult your GP.

Hope this helps & this all turns out ok for you.

Keep us posted

trotman68 agony aunt i dont understand that you know its wrong so why do it. If you want to be treated like an adult, then act like one please. Thats not me being nasty but you seem sensible and you know this is wrong. I would go and get the morning after pill from your GP. wait until your period is due which is due about then 29th August. If then you havent had a period, do a test, most can be done the day your due on.

Dont worry about your last period as you did get one and its normal that some women after losing their virginiy bleed not so heavy. Its unlikely that your pregnant, but not impossible that you could be as this has been known. If you want to put your mind at rest, talk to your GP when you get the morning after pill. Please keep in touch.
