Subject: Whats going on?!?!

Question
ok me and my boyfriend had sex (my first time) the day before I was supposed to get my period and I did not get my period and I generally do not have an irregular period I'm not supposed to get it again until the end of this month and I dont know if me not getting it was because it shocked my body or because I got pregnant...we used a condom so I don't know what to think.

Answer
Dear Torrie,

It is almost impossible to get pregnant the day before your period. Are you sure there weren't any other activities that you and you bf engaged in that could have caused pregnancy?

You could get a home pregnancy test.  They are usually pretty accurate.

If the test says negative. take another one in a couple of weeks.  If that also says negative, I would say you are not pregnant.  As to why you missed a period, maybe your doctor could tell you at your next visit.

Best wishes,

Deb
