You can take the test now. Having sex without protection is playing with fire, which you would have realised so yes there is a chance of being pregnant. 14 days after having the first day of a period is when you ovulate ... if you had sex 14 days after the first day of your last period there is a very very high chance of pregnancy. You should get a test and if you are not ready to become a mother use a condom they aren't that expensive. Not to mension the risk of STD's.

You already missed a period? If that's what you're saying, you can test now and it should come back accurate. Are your periods normally regular?

Why are you having unprotected sex? Do you want to be pregnant?

If you've missed a period, it's time to test. If you're not pregnant, please invest in birth control.

Haha "AyaMiyaki" I felt rude writting my comment before but so many girls are running around saying "OMG I think I'm pregnant" then finding out they are not then doing it again the following month. Silly people.

Then take a test...

It's either a pregnancy or stress causing your period not to come...

You said you missed a period from having unprotected sex a month ago??

If you had a period after you had unprotected sex the first time, you're not pregnant...


Now all you can do is wait until you miss a period, it would NOT be accurate right now... You should wait until your period is supposed to be here, and that shouldn't be hard, giving the fact you said your periods are normal.

You can actually get pregnant then miss a period then have a period then have no periods, some people bleed all the way through and others stop and start it depends on the way your body works. As for the home test not being accurate most home tests say that they are 99% accurate from 24hours after conception due to being able to detect minute traces of hormones released into the urine when falling pregnant. However you wrote this yesterday about having unprotected sex the day before so now 48 hours have past so trying a home pregnancy test now is a good idea, if it comes up negative don't breath a sigh of relief just yet because it may not be as accurate as taking the test 7 days after conception. The best thing to do is go see your doctor who will take a blood test which will state if your body has released the fertilisation hormones and if so at what level which indicates exactly how pregnant you are. If that is, that you are pregnant, which you are probably not.

Well, technically speaking, nobody has a p e r i o d during pregnancy, however some do bleed... and usually it is very little bleeding. Generally the best idea is to take a test when and if she does miss a period, b/c as she said, they're typically normal and she'll know when to expect it.

yeah, i know, which is why i, earlier, suggest she take a test already to see if she is pregnant, which would be from the last series of unprotected sex if it shows up positive.

i usually hear pinkish colored discharge/brown discharge could be implantation bleeding...
which usually happens 6-12 days after ovulation...

Not a sign of pregnancy, that could have been left over from your last period and now that you have had so much sex lately it has mixed in with mucus and now released itself.
