Help?
Posted: 11-06-06 13:32pm

Ive been sexually active with my boyfriend for about 5 months now and we've always used a condom, but my period is a week late
i know that doesnt seem long but im usually regular and its shaken me up a bit
anyone to talk to for reassurance or support would be great
thanks

Even if you used condoms everytime, pregnancy is still possible. Happened to me. I think you should buy a pregnancy test, you can use it as soon as your period is late. Best time to test is first thing in the morning.

If your period is late then you can take a test. I think that would be advisable because then you will know for sure what you are dealing with.

How would you feel if you were pregnant?

All you can really do now is take a test, or wait and see if your period is just late.

if your late with your period you can go ahead and take a test, doing it in the morning will be more accurate. Go take a test!

You said you're a week late, so it would be better to just get a test like tomorrow if u can, then test wednesday morning. Why wait a whole other week worrying about it.

You can buy really cheap tests for like a quid in lots of shops (not sure about .U.S) if you're worried about spending lots of money.

Or go and see you doc for a free test (again not sure about .U.S).

Yeah I suppose
the only reason I thopught about waiting is because I know im usually regular but every now and then (not often) I do get a bit late
and I know hormones and stuff can make you irregular
argh
ill get a test soon
