I am 15 yrs old and about a month ago me
and my boyfriend had unprotected sex, it
was about a week or so after my period,
now here it is time for period to come and
it hasnt, my period was supposed to come
on the 15th of march and now it is the
17th of march and still no period....Ive
been doing a lot of research on the
symptoms of early pregnancy and I have
came up with these results.....Morning
sickness...Which I havent gotten....Sore
breasts...Which I havent gotten...And many
more in which I havent gotten...I also
read that being under stress can cause ur
period to be late...Well I dont know if u
would call this stress..But I have been
highly concerned about being pregnant, I
mean I am only 15 and my parents would
kill me...So do u think its all in my head
and im just stressing myself out is why my
period has not came?!? Or do u think I
could be pregnant?! Let me remind u I
have not taken a test but plan to do so
today.....Do u think that is a little too
early?! Should a wait a week or 2!?! I
need help fast....Thnx bye!

Hun slow down........
The first and most important thing you
need to do is take a test. A missed
period of course is a pretty strong
indicator but its not 100%. Sometimes
stress can cause hormones to go out of
control and mess up ur preiod. I know it
must be tough but be strong. Just take a
test.. Its the best thing you can do at
this point.
Good luck and keep us posted...

Ok im just really freaking out. And I
really think and hope that it is just
stress, because as soon as I knew it was
about to be time for my period to come I
started worrying about the what
if's...What if it dont come?! Then it all
came to me worryin alot about being
pregnant, and I constantly think about
it...So maybe it is stress...Im going to
give it a week or 2 and see if I get a
period...If not then I will take a hpt!

Your only 2 days late so far stop
stressing seriously the stress is
potential harmful and if you are not
pregnant the stress can not only cause a
late period but pregnancy like symptoms
you can work yourself up so much thinking
you are pregnant that you can get
symptoms... Wait it out and test!

Ok...Ive been trying to relax...Does
anyone know how long stress can delay ur
period?? If it is stress?! Someone told
me no longer than a week or 2...Im really
trying not to think and worry about this
too much...But im 15, and having
unprotected sex was the biggest mistake I
made...It was not planned, it just
happened...But maybe im just letting it
get to my head, my bestfriend doesnt think
im pregnant...And that im just stressing
alot over it and im making myslef think I
am...She tells me that if I am pregnant I
would know, I would be able to tell. And
another thing she thinks that I would be
getting morning sickness by now, because
of the fact that I am so young that if
something starts to form in my body,
because it is not fully grown, that my
body would try to reject it and which
would cause morning sickness..Is this
true?! Because like ive sayd I have not
been getting sick or any of that. And ur
right stressing can make u get pregnant
like symptoms...Because here lately it
seems like ive been eating more than
usual...But maybe its just all in my head,
because no one else seems to think
so....Well im going to try to get my mind
off all this and wait it out...Wish me
luck...Thnx...

Sorry hun but your friend hasnt been
pregnant so dont listen to her.. Stress
can throw your entire period off when I
was in highschool I was high strung I
played hard sports worked had a rough
family life etc... Like doing sports
seasons I stretched myself so far id go
like 3 months without a period

Ok so do u think it could be stress?
Honestly?! Cuz I have been stressing
alot...Well I dont know if its
stress....But I do worry about it
alot...And I get butterflies...I talked to
my boyfriend today and he says that he
doesnt think im pregnant but u never
know...It could happen even if it was only
one time...But hopefully not...Myabe it is
stress...If it is stress could there be a
chance that I wont get a period at all
this month?!?
