Well...in at least one sense of the word, no you absolutely *cannot* be pregnant from sex yesterday.
Following sex, sperm can live up to 3-5 days in the female body if conditions are right, waiting for ovulation. After an egg is fertilized, it takes at least about a week for it to travel to the uterus to start implanting. Until implantation, the zygote isn't attached to your body in *any* way, so physically you aren't even pregnant. You can't have any physical changes of pregnancy, and there is no change in your hormone levels.
Marijuana and smoking can lower sperm count, but neither *usually* causes male infertility. Lots of men smoke (all kinds of things) and still become fathers. So that by itself is not likely to make a difference in whether you get pregnant or not. However, if he is smoking around you when you are pregnant, he could cause serious damage to you and/or his baby. I would suggest dealing with the problem *before* you try to conceive!!

Technically you COULD be, but only because anyone because sex (with a male and female) increases the chances of being pregnant because that's the way you GET pregnant. I wouldn't worry unless you get signs of pregnancy. If you think you are, you can either go to the doc and get a blood test or wait until four or 5 days before your period or even until the day you should start and take a preg. test. Otherwise you can't really know the DAY after sex... it's just not that easy.
!!!!You should really not smoke ANYTHING no matter if you want to get pregnant or not. It's too hard to quit for one thing, what if you decided to get pregnant and couldn't quit? Wouldn't that be awful? Why are you with someone that would put themselves OR their girlfriend in that type of situation???? You need to re-think this guy and WHY are you guys having unprotected sex and being in SUCH a crazy state? I just can't believe you are with someone who would do this! !! !

Is that ten days after the start of your period, or ten days after the end? How long is your cycle? Without knowing either of those pieces of information, it's impossible to give you any kind of idea whether you conceived yesterday. If you don't want to be pregnant, you are well within the window for emergency contraception (72 hours) and if you do want to get pregnant, there are numerous books and websites that can teach you how to track your cycles so you know when you are fertile.

It's important to know if it was 10 days after the beginning, which would have put you in your fertile zone, or ten days after the end, which wouldn't have been as fertile. With unprotected sex there is always the possibility of pregnancy. If you're worried you can get the morning-after pill up to 72 hours after the incident.

oh yes, you can, however i would be worried about you being pregnant and having a baby with birth defects because of the drugs. it depends on how long your cycle is but remember that sperm lives inside of you for up to 6 days sometimes less depending on te temp. but you can definitely get pregnant. Good luck and SAY NO TO DRUGS, DRUGS ARE BAD THEY WILL KILL YOU NOT TO MENTION THEY MAKE YOU REALLY REALLY DUMB AND STUPID!!

Yes. I would get emergency contraceptives if I were you. If not you risk imposing deformity & misery on an innocent baby, because of his drug use. While you're at it, imho, get a better boyfriend Im sure you deserve better!
