Should i worrie??

Question

i am 16 years old and live with my mother and stepfather. I have been seening my boyfriend for 9 months now and we have had unprotected sex a few times. Besides that for the past 4 to 5 months i have been spotting instead of having a period and now this month i havent had on at all and i was supposed to start on the 4th, it's now the 18. The upper part of my stomack has seemed to gotten firmer and every now and then if feel as if there is something moving around in my stomack. its like a kind of a thud feeling. Im going to get a prgnancy test next weekend at the doctors but i was woundering if i should be worried at all.

Answer 1

Yes. Sorry to scare you, but any time you have unprotected sex you should worry, and especailly with your irregular period. Go to the drug store tonight and get a pregnancy test - some are sensitive enough to tell you even 5 days after your missed period (read the boxes carefully and/or ask the pharmacist) - and it would be best to have your bf or best friend there when you take it, just in case the results are bad. Even if it says negative (which can be false), go to the doctor and take a test there to be sure (though a positive test result is rarely wrong).

Im not going to chastise you about being irresponsible, because hopefully this scare is enought to teach you a lesson. If you arent already, you need to start going to the gynocologist (Planned Parenthood is great, and very private), and get yourself on some birth control, which you should be using in addition to condoms. Plus, anyone who is sexually active (or not by your age) should be going at least once a year for health reasons. Good luck hon!

Answer 2

you should be worried, you had unprotected sex for the first thing, second thing you havent had your period and have been spotting instead wich isnt a normal thing, third you sound like you might be pregnant, and you are only 16 teen not a good thing. the only thing i can say too you is that if you end up being pregnant and cant keep the baby give it up for adoption, there are so many families out there that would love a child and cant have one, you can even do open adoption. if you do keep the baby though, make sure you get some help some were and if you can stay in school get and education it would be the best thing for you and the baby so you can support it better. best of luck

Answer 3

Don't wait until this weekend to go to the doctor, you and/or your boyfriend should go buy a HPT (Home Pregnancy Test) today and take it first thing tomorrow morning when you wake up. You can even find these at the dollar store if price is an issue...Try to find First Response, that one seems to be one of the most sensitive tests on the market.

It is not healthy that you haven't had a normal period in 4-5 months...You very well could be 5 months pregnant as it is normal for women to spot during pregnancy...You need to get medical attention immediately if you are pregnant.

Answer 4

Are you ready to be a mother? If you're not, then YES you should be worried!! Anytime you have unprotected sex you should worry! You're not only at risk for pregnancy, but STDs as well!! Go get a pregnancy test right now--not next weekend! You need to know if you're pregnant now, not later! It sounds like you are displaying classic symptoms of pregnancy, so the sooner you find out, the better! You need to have plenty of time to weigh out your options. Will you keep the baby or have an abortion? Will you drop out of school? Will you go to college? How about the baby's father? Where is he in all of this? Is he going to be in the child's life? Will he help support you two? How will your parents feel? These are the questions you need to think about and answer on your own.

Answer 5

Do not worry so much. That maybe the reason for the spotting. Be careful the next time having unprotected sex, no matter if you've known them all your life.AIDS claims lives like that,so be careful and just go to the doctor. Good luck! Choose to use protection if you find out that you're not.Babies are expensive at your age,so please think about finishing school and graduate,not wait on a baby for right know.God Bless !!!!!!!

Answer 6

Uh, yeah...... Being 16 and having a baby is not the best thing in the world. You will have a lot of things change, just about every thing will change. Sounds to me like you are prego, I have 3 kids, and have always been there at the beginning and the end of my GFs pregnancy, good luck

Answer 7

Hun, you must use protection every single time. It only takes one time to get pregnant so you should not risk it. You are too young and have too much ahead of you to be having a child right now. Please get a pregnancy test and talk to your doctor/parents about getting on a contraceptive like the pill and use a condom every single time. Your first missed period should have been a red flag so you really need to get a home pregnancy test immediately or go to your local Planned Parenthood and get one done there.

Answer 8

If you are having unprotected sex, you should be worried about more than just being pregnant. go to your doctor and get a series of tests, including HIV and a Pregnancy test.

Good Luck (and let this worry be a lesson to you).

Answer 9

I would be worried. Very worried. Any time you have unprotected sex you have a high chance of getting pregnant. I'm assuming you don't want to be a mother right now so why would you be so dumb as to have unprotected sex? Not only can you get pregnant but you risk getting STD's. Good luck.

Answer 10

hey sweetie, just go to a store (where nobody knows you) and buy an EPT. You can get one for 5 - $10.00. They are pretty much right on the money. Good luck ....I hope everything turns out alright for you. If you are though....confide in your mom...she will help you after the shock...well, at least I did. Take care hon.
