Question
me and my girl friend had sex.it was first time for both.she was 23 and i am 24.we had sex 4( on 4 oct) nitedays before her periods.i used condom and the condom was in a perfect condition till our sex was completed our sex.she is not getting her periods after 2 days of her regular periods time.has she became pregnent or periods may come after few days .(regular period time 10 oct.didnt get till 11 oct)
Hi Mike,
I can't tell if her she got her period? If she did, there is nothing to worry about. If she didn't get it, you can check a pregnancy test about a week after you had sex and it will show up positive if she is pregnant. It sounds like you had safe sex, and the condom was intact, so there is probably nothing to worry about. Maybe she would like to consider a more reliable method of birth control at this time. You might consider seeing a family planning clinic or family practice doctor to start on birth control pills.
Good luck to both of you,
Doctor Joan
