Small Question!

i had sex about two months ago, had my
period a month after that, and now haven't
had it and i'm scared! i've been gaining a
little wait, but haven't changed any of my
eating habits. this is probably a stupid
question, but i'm just scared!

If you had sex two months ago, have had a
period, and haven't had sex since your
last period, you are probably not
pregnant.
It's really, really rare to have a period
while you are pregnant, but it can happen
in the first month of pregnancy, or the
first "period" could have been
implantation bleeding (but I doubt it.)
If you are sure it was a period that you
had, then don't worry. You could just be
stressed out or something else besides
pregnancy could be delaying it.
If this doesn't help you, you can always
take a test. That never hurts and will
give you more peace of mind.

I don't think you're pregnant either; and
stress can cause it to be even later! Just
go buy a test and pee on it to ease your
mind. You've had a period, so you're not
likely to be pregnant.

Was the first period a real period, or was
it light? Your options are...
- You're not pregnant, and are just late
- You were pregnant, but miscarried,
causing a late period
- You are pregnant, and your 'period' was
actually implantation bleeding

It's when the fertilized egg burrows into
your uterus. About 10-14 days after
fertilization (I could be wrong on that
number, someone correct me if I am).
Sometimes there is bleeding associated
with it, but it's usually very light.

I don't think she had sex after her period
which is why we all think she's not
pregnant. Anyway, regardless of that, you
can now test and get accurate results.

If she miscarried, the test might still
come back positive. There is also the very
unlikely chance of an ectopic pregnancy,
although that can only be diagnosed by an
OB.
Take the test, then go see an OB if it's
positive. I guess that's all it boils down
to.

I'm beginning to think all sexually active
women and girls who don't want to get
pregnant, besides being on reliable birth
control, should keep a dose of Plan B and
a home pregnancy test locked away for
emergencies.

it's just really confusing me that i
skipped: i rarely do. does it mean
anything if i had a period a month later,
but skipped the next one? i wasn't too
worried until i begin gaining weight,
which is really abnormal for me
considering i play a lot of sports!

know.

It sounds like something may be really
wrong, though. You should have your
parents take you to the doctor.

Possibly a thyroid issue, maybe pregnancy
but the weight gain isn't normally this
soon.
