Hi! I am new to this. I signed up because I need some serious help. Today, I am a week late. Me and my boyfriend have been having unprotected sex for the past month. He pulls out everytime so I havent really been worried about anything. Well, I took a pregnancy test monday and it came out negative. But I heard after that, that your supposed to take it your first pee of the day, and I didnt. Last night, we had sex again and when I came back home, I had spotting. But it stopped. Am I pregnant?

Theres a chance you could be pregnant but since the test came out negative you mioght not be.It could have ben too early for you to take one.You do know having unprotected sex whether he ejaculates or not,can get you pregnant right?Its called pre cum and it also has sperm in it. If your that worried you might be pregnant why have unprotected sex? Why have sex at all.If I were you I would go buy another test and take it and see what the results are

Hun anytime that you have unprotected sex wether he pulls out or not you can get pregnant. When was you last period? And when are you do for your period again? The other question that I have is are you trying to get pregnant?

I got pregnant with my son doing the exact same thing as you so yes there is a chance you could be pregnant but you may be one of the lucky ones.

I suggest you take another test. If you are not pregnant and don't wish to have a baby then please get on some form of birth control. Condoms are cheap enough. Use the pill with condoms is what I suggest to be better protected.

No, I am not trying to get pregnant. I had just always heard that pulling out worked. I didnt know that pre-cum could get you pregnant. Im scared. I know that I shouldnt of done it, and I regret it now, it was one of those in the heat of hte moment things.

Best thing to do is take another test. If its negative then you'll need to wait for your period to arrive. I'm glad you have learned a lesson from this. I just hope its not too late.

If its after your period is due then you can take it anytime but hcg is strongest with first morning urine so for the most accurate results use first morning urine.

Good luck!

Orange_20 get another test and if it says you are not pregnant. Go to the nearest planned parenthood clinic in your area to get on birth control. Pulling out just doesn't work so if I were you I would be on a more effective type. Or you can always ask your bf do use condoms. Just don't have unprotected sex anymore.. Okay

So.. I went and bought another test. Two actually. And one came up with an error and the other said that I wasnt pregnant. Me and my boyfriend both think I am though. I mean, I am a week and 3 days late. I have been really really tired here lately, I had spotting the other day, I have been having alot of headaches, and my nipples and the area around them hurt really bad. I just dont know any other answer. Do yall think that maybe its too early for it to show up? I got off my last period on september 13. Im pretty regular. If I go to a planned parenthood, can I get a test done without my mom finding out?

If you had enough pregnancy hormone in your body to stop your period, it should have come up on a test.

But yes, you can go to planned parenthood without your parents. It's 100% confidential.

Considering you and your boyfriend have been doing the horizontal jog without protection for a month, there's no telling when you could have possibly conceived because there's no way to tell when exactly you would have ovulated. I'd say you have a pretty good chance of being pregnant, but maybe lady luck was on your side. You could be anywhere from a few days to a month pregnant, and symptoms will show up no earlier than a week past conception.

If you're freaking out over this, your body could be convincing you that you're pregnant. Women may have pregnancy symptoms without actually being pregnant when they either really don't want a kid or they really do.

In the event of pregnancy, are you guys going to attempt to be parents? I don't mean to sound discouraging, but a lot of guys will say they'll stick by their girlfriends when a baby is incubating...But when it arrives, they suddenly don't want to be fathers yet. Teenaged boys rarely are ready for parenthood, so don't be surprised if he bails out one day. This all applies, of course, if you plan on keeping the thing.

I am a little over 18 weeks pregnant. I got pregnant with my now fiance pulling out so it is very possible, just b/c he pulls out dont really mean much, I know tons of ppl who got pregnant that way. Just wait a while and take another test, if it comes out negative and you miss your period again and are still worried then make a doctors appt. Good luck, and if you are not wanting to get pregnant then pulling out is not a safe choice.

Update!
Ok, so last monday (a week ago) I started my period. I started that night, and got off tuesday. Well, I know that you can have very short and light periods if your pregnant, so I took another test, and it came up negative. Then I started again friday morning and was off friday night. And started again last night and am already off. I used to have cysts on my ovaries, do yall think that its from that, or can that have anything to do with being pregnant? My mom told me just to watch my period and if it keeps up then we will go back to the gyno. (she doesnt know that I thought I was pregnant.)

Go and see your doctor if you have previous history of erracttic periods and you are getting negative pregnancy tests then likelihood is that this could be related to your past history.

By the sounds of it you are not pregnant but of course there is always a possibility.

You may just be having irregular periods it happens sometimes and the symptoms you are having could be down to pmt.

If you are worried about your irregular periods then there is no harm in seeing your doctor. You can discuss birth control while you are there
