she was thirteen, because if she should get to older age, infact if she didnt concieve that day, Joseph would disvirgin her the next night

Seeing as she was engaged to be married, probably about fourteen or fifteen, which was a normal age to be married at the time.

Tradition states 14, this is because someone who was betrothed would not have been unwed and a virgin much past this age.

Only conjecture, but she was at least 13, and probably no older than 19.
