bobbles32 agony auntYeah, he has access to the internet and he's looking for info, but when he asked for it he didn't get an answer, just a lecture. He's clearly going to be sexually active.. so why not provide him with information instead of chastising him for searching?

You don't need to tell me that I'm entitled to my opinion, I'm well aware, thanks.

bobbles32 agony auntlol, every time someone under the age of 18 posts something even relatively close to sex then everyone freaks out and says "You're too young" "You're irresponsible" This young man has not claimed that he did or did not use protection, he just asked a question regarding the cycle of the female reproductive system.

I think that if we take a little more time and actually think about the questions instead of just jumping down someone's throat then we would be able to give much better advice.

Because YOU think he's too young or you think you're protecting him by telling him he's too young doesn't make either true. You didn't answer his question.

Dear, a girl will get her period every 21-28 days, sometimes more.. depending on what's normal for her. It's probably too early to take a pregnancy test, as the pregnancy hormone the tests look for may not be present yet.

There are early detector pregnancy tests which tend to cost more that claim they can detect the pregnancy hormone a week before a girl's expected period.

When did you have sex? Was is protected? A girl is typically most fertile between day 13-15 of her cycle. If you have had unprotected sex, or your method of birth control failed around this time then there is a larger change she is pregnant than say, if you used a condom.

I hope I helped a bit, and good luck.

If you did have unprotected sex, consider this a lesson learned. Unless you want to be a dad then you should always use SOME form of birth control.

What are the chances? About 50-50. You live in the U.S., so you might be in an area that has a Planned Parenthood. Suggest to her that you go together to have her take a pregnancy test. That way you will know for sure.

If she is pregnant, the people there are trained to help both of you with that news.

If she isn't pregnant, they can help talk to you both about birth control that works for both of you.

Good luck!

Before you have sex again, familiarize yourself with the female reproductive system. This information is easily available, and you owe it to yourself to at least understand the bodies of the girls you are going to have sex with.

Next, make sure your girlfriend is on birth control. Speak to your parents about this or a clinic etc. If you can't get her on BC, or at least use condoms every time, don't have sex.

If you need to know whether she is pregnant, have her take a test. The odds of pregnancy change depending on time of the month, contraception used, "virility" of both, and luck.

Please educate yourself before getting involved like this.If you're only 16 and freaked out about this, then you are probably not in a position to be having sex until you grow up a little.
