Hello there.
The day I bought my test, I also had my period. Double signs of relief! That's now one problem I can get out of my mind. My parents are still really upset at each other, but I hope it's only a tsunami that will pass.
Thank you all, again, for your answers and advices. I'll always keep them in mind and try to focus, as Specialmom said, on "growing up".
Thank you!
Good luck and make sure you use birth control. And never lose sight of what is really important at your age---- your education and growing into a functioning, independent adult. Sex and boyfriends have a way of derailing us from this path. Boyfriends at 16 are not typically the men we end up with for a lifetime so give your body away keeping this in mind. This is a time in life to be carefree, hanging out with your girlfriends, growing your mind, maturing, etc. Don't cheat yourself out of that by growing up too soon with guys. I never got that until I was well out of my teens and know that we all have to go through it ourselves to understand it fully. But did want to reach out to you and give you this advice. You sound like a sweet girl and I hope all goes well for you.
Take a pregnancy test and let's cross our fingers it is negative. Then be very careful in the future. good luck
Thank you all for answering me and for your advices.
We've been together for a year, and we really thought about it before having sex together. We will be more careful in the future.
I will take a pregnancy test as soon as possible.
Thanks
It's good advice for a teen and the poster is trying to help. We allow that here at med help.
I think young teens should wait to have sex for many reasons. Not just because of pregnancy risks. And I am able to share that with posters for their benefit.
Thanks for respecting that.
Many teens may not be ready, but it's not up to someone else to tell her she's too young. She's her own person and can clearly make the decision herself. She was sensible and used condoms which is better than a lot of people.
I think everyone has a 'right' to have sex but that still doesn't mean it isn't too early. Sex is a huge deal and many young teens are not emotionally ready for it.
With that being said, I'd take a pregnancy test. Then this can rule out pregnancy and you can stop worrying about it. Because YES, stress can definitely make your period late. good luck
She might be English, in which case 16 is the legal age of consent and she'd be perfectly within her rights to enjoy sex with her boyfriend.
The thing to remember, LonelyShade, is that condoms aren't 100% effective and it may be worth getting checked out. Stress can mess up your periods as well though so it is unlikely. It may also be worth looking at other hormonal contraceptives as well as condoms.
Well first off you are way too young to be having sex you should be enjoying your life with your friends and not be wondering if your pregnat.... Stress can result in late periods but you are two weeks late so you maybe you might want to take a test best of luck
