You were dangerously close to the prime pregnancy time.
Based on a 28 day cycle:
Counting the first day you begin to bleed as "Day 1", if it is around 28 days to get to the next "first day" of bleeding, you have a 28 day cycle. If you have your period for 5 days, then from Day 1-5 you are bleeding (on your period). Day 6- 28 you should be off your period and start the cycle all over again when you get your period again on Day 28.
Based on this 28 day cycle, your most fertile days are Day 12-14, when your chance of getting pregnant is at it's peak. It sounds like this is precisely when you guys had sex.
Now, this is no guarantee (I've actually been trying to get pregnant with my husband and no luck so far) but it is definately reason to be nervous if you do not want a pregnancy. I should add that if your cycle is 24 days or 30 days or any other variation, your "most fertile" days will change slightly, so you'll have to back track (if you write your periods down) to determine your cycle and fertile days.
Your best bet would be to talk to a clinic, find a free clinic in your area, they are a little better at being private/confidential.
Unfortunately, the hormone that is evident to determine a pregnancy isn't quite strong enough to show up this early. You should get to a clinic and look into Plan B TODAY if possible, otherwise you'll have to wait to nearly 4 days before you expect your next period to detect that pregnancy hormone. While home tests like EPT can be helpful, you may want to stick to the clinic in this situation for all your needs, especially if you end up being pregnant. I don't know how old you are, but you should have someone talk to that isn't emotionally attached to you being or not being pregnant. They can be the most objective at determining what are the best choices for you. And if you aren't pregnant, you can leave immediately with some birth control.
I'm no saint, it is VERY difficult to keep a condom on once you've gone without. You should look into a different or additional form of birth control in the future. I liked the shot because it was once every 3 months and I didn't get my period. I was on the pills for awhile to to prepare for when me and my husband were able to get pregnant. Now I'm not on anything.
If you are especially young, it may be very difficult for you to grasp the idea of a pregnancy meaning another HUMAN LIFE/ INDIVIDUAL who will go on to live for the next 80 years at least. It is more than just something that happens to your body. So if you are pregnant, consider your ability to be a mom, the support you'll get from your family (even if they seem disappointed at first, they're likely to come around when a baby is born), adoption, and abortion. Any of these will have an ENORMOUS effect on the rest of your life---forever.
If you aren't pregnant, please consider all these things anyway as if you were, and protect YOUR body and your heart from something so life changing from occurring before you are ready; a baby, another human, deserves all the love you can provide.
And please, go to a clinic and start looking at your options for other birth control.
Good Luck, hon. A baby is a wonderful thing. I have a 7 year old I wasn't expecting, and I am so grateful for him in my life. ( I was 19 years old).

If I were a guy: I would bring up the option of abortion, (but I would already know if she were against it or not because we would have discussed it before having sex for the first time) If she didn't want to go that way I would support her decision. I wouldn't marry her. Marrying your pregnant girlfriend is an antiquated ritual! unmarried couples are still getting pregnant, planned or not, and society doesn't deem that taboo anymore. Maybe eventually marriage would come, but only if it felt right. Raising a child is a stressful thing that can both tear a couple apart or bring them together. I would pay child support, but continue on with my plans for the future and encourage her to do the same, i.e; college, travel, fulfill the normal dreams of a teenager. Even if the child would make things harder to do that. I think teen pregnancy is unfortunate. But it can happen to anybody, so I think there should be options for both people involved!

from now on, you should definitely ALWAYS use a condom. if you are concerned about being pregnant, you should go get a pregnancy test. there is a good chance you will not be pregnant because you are not ovulating until about two weeks before your period. so the time you are LEAST likely to get pregnant is actually the week after your period.
go take the test anyway. and next time, think about the consequences first so you don't have to go through this again! good luck.

yes .you was ovulating then. i would take a test .
lets say your period starts on the first and it last four days then you have until the 8 to have sex with no worries, now from the 9 to the 23 you "have" to use a condom , from the 24 to the fist you have nothing to worry.
i recommend you to use a condom every time you have sex. think about this you have sex with your bf, lets say he was with 4 girls befor you now each of those girls were with at least 4 different guys . that's 16 and then those 16 people were with 4 eah one. think about it!!!!!. plus u might get pregnant and i know you are too young to have a baby good luck!!!!

No, you don't ovulate 1 week after your period. You should take a pregnancy test anyway just to be sure though. It will give you peace of mind and also let you know for sure. If your periods are irregular or you have just started getting them, then pregnancy is more likely to happen. If you are not trying to have kids and are not on birth control, then you should use condoms definately. I know the guys hate them and it does not feel as good for them, but think how good you both are going to feel when you are young, unmarried, in school and have to get up and go to work and you have a screaming newborn on your hands. not fun!!! go to Planned Parenthood and they can tell you about your birth control options, help you maintain sexual health for both of your, and get you on some type of birth control pill. Good Luck!

okay here is how it really is...you can get pregnant anytime...but normally you are more likely to conceive in the middle of your cycle for 2 weeks later...there is no test out there that can tell you this soon sperm can stay alive for 7 days in the woman's body......even a doctor would not be able to tell you this soon...you just have to waite till you have your cycle..hint ...if you think you started your cycle yet it is very light not heavy and a darker color then normally is...that is the spotting that allows some women to know that the sperm has met up with the egg...you should talk to you boyfriend about the sex stuff...sex is made to make children and to connect with a person you love....

Even if you did get pregnant you wouldn't be able to test right now because it would be too soon. You don't produce HCG (the hormone deteced by the test) until after implantation, which can take up to a week or two to happen. Thats why tests tell you to wait until AFTER you have missed your period. Just tell your boyfriend "sorry but you have to wait".

It just amazes me how stupid a woman can be.. your body is your sacred place, you can't just give it away without protecting your center. What I mean by this is that you don't need a baby, and should not have sex without protection again ever! Do you even ask yourself about diseases? I mean it's a real part of life. Protect yourself. His response alone should be enough to show you that he's just not that in to you.

go to a clinic and take a pregnancy test, if the results are positve, then you should talk to your boyfriend about if you are ready for a child or not. They are a big responsibility.
good luck ♥
