Answer 2

Don't worry about it. If you get your period, you aren't pregnant. Your period sheds the lining of your uterus, and without that lining, an egg cannot "latch" on. If you were pregnant, you might have had spotting, but it wouldn't be like a full on period. If you were pregnant, and bled as much as a period, it would probably be a miscarriage. If you're truly terrified that you're pregnant, take a pregnancy test just to put your mind at ease. They aren't very expensive. Just make sure you don't freak out prematurely and talk to your parents or something, because they will most likely freak out as well, and for nothing. So if you do end up taking the test, dispose of it (and the box) well. And by that, I mean don't just leave it in the trashcan in your house. But seriously. Relax. If you got your period, even if it's early, it means you are NOT pregnant. Just let this be a lesson. Don't have unprotected sex. Ever. Also, there is the morning after pill, which is available OTC. But you need parental consent for that one. I'm 99% sure you're not pregnant. Relax.

Answer 3

if you're afraid about getting pregnant then you shouldn't be having sex, period, at any age, whether 15 or 30; it just isn't good to have sex when you're afraid of the consequences of it.

if you're not always regular then 2 nights early isn't that big of a deal. for some being irregular means being off by a few days, for others it means being infrequent, and only having a period a few times a year, if that.

as far as having sex; can you see yourself with this guy perhaps when you're 20 or 25, or is this simply where you're at right now. if you were to get pregnant by him, can you see him in your life, would he take care of the child? it's a lot easier to tell someone to stop having sex because once that is part of the relationship you can't take it out of the equation; it is very, very difficult to continue the relationship without that and the self-doubt and questions that arise once you try to move on without it, but it is worth taking that chance if worries about pregnancy are going to dominate it anyway.

Answer 4

You are way too young to be having sex when you don't know the obvious answer to that question - which is, 'Buy a pregnancy test and test yourself'.
Back off having sex until you are older. You need to mature. I'll bet you're thinking that buying a pregnancy test takes money you don't have. And that it was too much trouble to use protection and that's why you skipped it JUST that once.
Babies cost a whole lot more in time, effort and money than a simple box you buy in a drugstore to test pregnancy. And they are a lot more trouble than the effort it would have taken to put on a condom.
Think about it. Realize that you are too young for these problems. You have your life ahead of you. Lay of screwing around for awhile. The longer the while is, the better.

Answer 5

You had to realize when you posted this question that you would be bombarded with "don't have sex"..."don't have sex".....right? But the fact is you have made that decision. I am not sure what prompted you do make that decision, only you know the answer to that. You are young, you have your whole life ahead of you, and you have to think of these things when you are making such decisions. The likelihood of you being preg. after having started is very very slim....let this be a big lesson for you..k? Also, preg. is not the only concern you should have when participating in "unprotected sex"...there is a long list of std's and let's not forget about HIV...... there's only two means of protecting yourself from these and that is Abstinence and condoms. It is imperative that you use condoms IF you are going to continue to be sexually active.... even if you are on another form of birth control *(ie the pill or iud) you have to respect yourself & your future enuff to demand the use of condoms...and if you are with a partner that doesn't demand the use of condoms himself this should concern you - b/c that means you aren't the only one he's had unprotected sex with - this can mean there are literally lots of folks in bed with the two of you .....and that is RISKY.....
Also, just b/c you have done it, does NOT mean you have to continue too....it is perfectly fine and would be a huge sign of maturity for you to abstain for a few years. telling your partner that you are simply not ready for such commitments.....
Please think this thru, it is adult behaviors - with life altering - adult consequences -

Answer 7

i dont mean to scare you but yes you could be if you have a friend whos mom would by you a test then she if she will and not tell your parents thats what i did im also 15 and was in the same position

Answer 8

hey sweetie. if you had your period there is no way that you are pregnant. not to be mean or anything, but next time, use a condom. they might take away a little of the fun, but i personally would much rather use a condom, than risk pregancy.

Answer 9

I'm pretty sure you are not pregnant. It being early is really not a problem. If you are really worried get a pregnancy test at the dollar store. They are very accurate.

Answer 10

You're probably not pregnant. Sometimes sex (and worrying about being pregnant) can mess up your timing.

The obvious advice is not to have intercourse, protected or otherwise.

Answer 11

u know im almost 15 and i planned to have sex soon, but i will always used a condom. im sorry to tell u but if ur pregnant u and ur boyfriend were stupid for not using protection. because it doesnt matter if you r really horny, you have to use a pill or a condom. let me tell u a baby can damage ur future, i know a baby is a present from god, but at this time of ur life is not a very nice present.
