Any time you have unprotected sex you can get pregnant, especially if you have sex around the time of ovulation. When exactly did you have sex and when exactly was your period due? The only way to be sure if you're pregnant is to go to the doctors and have him/her test you, but I would take an hpt (home pregnancy test, incase you didn't know) before you go running off to get tested. Good luck and keep us updated!

I don't really remember the exact date we had sex but I know that my period never comes late. I was supposed to have my period yesterday.

Yes test! Every single time you have sex, no matter if you use protection or not, there is a chance that you could wind up pregnant. If you are using protection, the chance is so small that its not worth worrying about, but it does happen!

If its been at least 2 weeks since you had sex, anything will be fine. Many people don't like the digital ones, so don't get one of those! Ept is a good brand, but I used equate (walmart brand) and they were just as good for me.

How late is your period?
Sweetie-since you are sexually active, I think that its better that you get on some birth control right away..Or at least use condoms or some other form of it. The chance of you being pregnant is very very high, not to scare you or anything. The biggest thing right now is go to wal-mart buy a pregnancy test(they all work different for different people) try getting ept and you should get two tests in there. Take on tomorrow morning, and if its negative and your period still hasn't come, wait a week than take the 2nd pregnancy test again (in the morning) a week from tomorrow or wheneven you take the first one. The sooner you find out the sooner we can look at options but even if you aren't, I would highly recommend that you get on birth control, I cant stress that enough...And I will gladly offer some help! Hope everything works out for you.

I bought the store brand test and it worked just as well as the ept. All of them are 99% accurate. Don't spend extra cash for a good brand name.
