Jessica, age 15, writes: I had sex almost a month ago, not long after my period ended. We used a condom, but it was a little big, it didnt look like it ripped or anything but im still freaking out! My period didnt come and its 6 days late. My period has been irregular for 4 years now. I have been using a tampon just in case, and there is some blood on it and some dark brown stuff.. Could i be pregnant? I took a test but only like a week after having sex. I dont know if it was to early to tell. Im so scared. I’m only 15. Please answer this question. Pleasae!
Dear Jessica,
Was this your first time having sex? Do you know how soon after your period ended that you had sex (i.e. was it the day after your period ended or a week after?). After you had sex, did you notice any semen/sperm spilling out of the condom or anything else to indicate that some semen may have gotten inside your vagina? Taking a pregnancy test a week after having sex would be too early. I would recommend taking another pregnancy test today and, assuming that one is negative, taking another one in a week.
Please keep us posted!
