am i pregnant

I had sex well about a week ago and now all my discharge is here. I'm not sure if I'm pregnant. I don't want to be. It's hard for me to get my hands on a test. And if I am what do I tell my parents, they don't know that I've and had sex. I'm so scared. My mate is busy so I don't know what to do. It was safe sex.

It is far too early to know if you will be pregnant or not a week after having sex.

It would also be too early even if you did manage to get your hands on a home testing kit.

In future, to avoid unwanted pregnancies, always use condoms.  If the bloke does not have any, either make sure that you have some or don't allow him to have sex with you.

Also, if ever you do have sex without protection and there is always the risk of getting pregnant (especially if you are ovulating), a doctor can prescribe a mini pill that will not allow the egg to get fertilized.  This must be taken within 36 hours of having sex.  As you have had sex a week ago, it is too late for you to have that medication.  But if you can, you can still make an appointment to see your doctor with your concerns as there may be something else available.

Alternatively, you can wait and hope that you are not pregnant.  
Even if you become pregnant, it is not the end of the world and even after the initial shock, parents usually come round to the fact that they will be having a grandchild and end up being very supportive.  Wait until you know for sure before you do tell them anything.

Hope all works out OK for you.
