I am 15 years old, I am not on birth
control. i have protected sex with my
boyfriend but we have done it un-protected
for a matter of seconds. Last month i had
my period on the 14th of april and now its
the 18th of may and i havent had my period
yet . I dont feel any symptoms and maybe
its a stupid question, but should i take a
pregnancy test? How many days after my
missed period should i take one? Would i
for sure notice symptoms if i was
pregnant?

You can take a pregnancy two weeks
(preferably three) after you had sex.
Your period isn't very late yet, and
you're only 15, so it could just be due to
random abnormalities. However, since you
had unprotected sex (even if it was just a
few seconds) there is a slight chance of
pregnancy, so I would suggest taking a
test. No, you would not notice any
symptoms necessarily- the only way you'll
know if you're pregnant is if you take a
test.
