i think i might be pregnant!!

ok i have an Urinary Tract Infection but i cant go to the doctors because im afraid i might be pregnant, and if i go to the doctors wouldnt my visit be on my dads health insurance bill???? and if he finds out ill get in serious trouble, im 15 and scared to death that i might be pregnant, although i dont have any signs of pregnancy except of my UTI (if i am) i would only be 1 week pregnant and its wayy too early to determine if i am isnt it?? does the UTI cause any symptoms like pregnancy, because if it does then i hope thats just what i feel. i dont feel sick at all, but yesterday when i had my niece on my stomach it hurted, maybe she was too fat lol, but i dont know what i should do, im really stressing about this!!! oooh also i had my period already after i thought i was pregnant but im not sure, because they said you can still be pregnant and have your period???


         I SERIOUSLY NEED HELP!!!!!!

Are you saying you had sex one week ago and that's why you think you're pregnant?  When was your last period?  A UTI could give you symptoms of painful urination or blood in the urine.  You should call your Planned Parenthood organization or the free clinic in your area.  They will treat you confidentially and your dad won't know.  Do you have an aunt or somebody close to you to ask?  

Also, you could go to the Dollar Tree and get a pregnancy test for $1 but that might not show up until you period is due.  But definitely call the free clinic to get checked out.  It could be anything.

Good luck!

If your going to have sex at 15, for God's sake....
PROTECT YOURSELF...It only takes ONCE.  You will never have to worry again if you take the simple steps to protect yourself.

Here is the link to planned parenthood.  Please, as Pixi said, use protection.  Take my advice, you have PLENTY of time to have children when you're an "adult".  And even worse, you don't want any diseases that can KILL you nowadays.  I wish I had somebody to give me advice when I was your age.  I love my kids dearly, but I got pregnant at 17 and never thought it would happen to me.  I didn't know you could get protection and stuff because I thought you had to be over 18.  But no, please call them to get some help.

Are the comments getting MIXED UP, or I'm just having a really BAD DAY?  Looks like there is a big GLITCH in this new format!!!!!!!! WTF??

[paranoidpatty]

I was wondering the same thing too, whether it was a glitch.  But I think she responded on another post and people were just commenting from there.  

I was really confused at first LOL.

If you go to the doctor for your UTI, they are going to test your urine for pregnancy.  With regard to the timing it probably wouldn't show up anyways.  More than likely ,  they probably will just prescribe an antibiotic for you and not even test urine.  

As far as being pregnant, the symptoms you were describing aren't really consistent with pregnancy.

You can check for pregnancy the day your period is due.  Be careful & protect yourself during intercourse.  Children cost so much $$ and are a lot of work!!

ok but from what all the advise that ppl are giving me i dont think i am pregnant, but they are also telling me that a uti is verry serious and i could get sick from it, so ill just go get it checked out. belive me my sister has a baby, and im not planning to have any kids until im older, i know alot of ppl say that but after this scare i think ima stick to it!!

[taysmommy]

you have doctor patient confidentiality whether your underage or not,  and i dont think they send the bill to your father directly, but to his insurence company,i agree with the above poster, see if you can get into planned parenthood, but i dont know if they will help you out with your UTI, you really need to get that checked out because it can lead to serious uninary problems if left untreated, hope you get to feeling better

[sweetroxystarr]

i know im going to get that checked, because its very scarey for me, and my sister told me that she had a uti before and she felt what i felt, so i kinda feel better about the whole being pregnant thing, thank you i hope i feel better too!!!!
