Question
Hi Chanel,
My last menstrual cycle was on February 25. My period is usually very regular, around 30 day cycle. I was supposed to have my period on the 25th of March, but now I am over 2 weeks late. On March 13, my boyfriend and I had dry sex; both of us had no clothes on. We were very careful about not getting his penis near my vagina. I took 2 pregnancy tests already, both of which were negative. I haven't had any pregnancy symptoms at all. Do you think I could be pregnant? Or is all this stress causing me to skip my period?
Thanks,
Sally
Hi Sally
Stress can cause periods to be late or even miss a month. You should try to relax and if no period in April, def see a doc. The chance of pregnancy is low, so I do not think you are, but if you miss two months it could be serious. Take Care

Hi! My name is Chanel and I believe I would be able to answer a wide variety of questions concerning teen pregnancy. I had my first child at the age of 16 and was currently a junior in high school. I had two more children after that at the ages of 18 and 20. I can answer questions dealing with everything from the unsure and scary part of not knowing if your pregnant to the actual pregnancy on to birth. I am now only 21 and still young and believe i can relate to younger girls very well. I appeared on the John Walsh show "16 And Pregnant?..I should Have Waited?" Also.
Experience
I am experienced in this area because i had two of my three children when i was a teenager. I finished high school and married the father of my second two children. I believe i am a very positive person when it comes to teen pregnancy because i believe no matter the situation there is a solution to bring out the positive.
