I am late

My period is really late, i am getting quite worried that i might be pregnant. I am 17 years of age and i have had sex a few times with various people but always used condoms...
I am not usually really regular, but i usually have my period during 18th to 23rd of the month..

what should i do at the very time?! Very confuesd.. and not really knowing what to do ..
I really dont think i am pregnant, but there is that nag in the back of my mind that i might be..

It's not terribly late. If you've used condoms properly then there's only a small chance you'll be pregnant. Go get a test from the chemists, even to put your mind at ease. Stress can make you late.

Leave it a few days and see what happens, then if you still havent started your period, do a test, if only to stop you worrying. If your periods are not very regular then it might just be down to that, perhaps leave it a week and see what happens.

As has been said before, if you have used a condom you should be okay, though it's not 100% effective. Do not stress and I am sure it will come.

Have you lost/put on wieght recently as this can have an affect too? Try not to worry.

I had same problem not too long ago, was really late, but went and got a test, was negative - so relived! Then day after i came on, lol!

Go get a test done though, no point worrying until you know for sure

There is a brand for the early stages of pregnancy, which I think you can use just a few days after your period is due.

Funnilly enough I had a bit of a scare last week too! I brought the boots own brand pregnancy test cos it's only £5.99. Anyway, it was negative. Phew. :biggrin:
