    Should I get plan B see a doctor?
    I am a teen, and I lost my virginity three days ago.. My boyfriend did NOT use a condom but pulled out before he came, he is pretty big so I bled but then I realized it might have been my period... so I have been using tampons for the past few days I have cramps and symptoms of my period but I have like NO blood coming out... am I pregnant? Is this normal? (I read online people bleed for a couple days if it's their first time but its time for my period.. )

    It's pretty much too late cor Plan B. That has to be started within 72 hours of intercourse, and then it is still not a guarantee that it will work. The "pull out" method is for people who are prepared to be parents. It is not a reliable method of birth control.

    Most likely you are experiencing the after effects of first time sex. Breaking the hymen will cause bleeding. Hormones will cause cramping.

    Are you pregnant? There is no way to tell 3 days after the fact. It takes approx a week for the fertilized egg to implant in the uterus and then you still have to wait until a missed period to test.

    Please use protection in the future.

    Oh I promise am going to use a condom next time.

    But what about my period I was expecting it to come around the day I had sex, is it possible to still be bleeding from breaking the hymen even 3 days after?

    It's possible that you have your period.

    I'm a little confused here. First you said you were bleeding. Then you said you have all of the symptoms of a period but not blood? If you're no longer bleeding I wouldn't use a tampon. I'd stick with pantiliners if there's just a little blood, but not enough to fill a tampon.

    Bleeding as in from the sex not from my period, can that last more then one day along with cramps? I just don't know if its my period but verryyy light flow or its from breaking the hymen and its taking awhile to recover (because sometimes it bleeds for around 2-3 days but very lightly)

    Since you're experiencing cramps it seems more likely its your period then still from the sex. And j_9 said it could be your period. Don't worry anymore for now, if you miss your period next month, that will be the time to worry. But for now it sounds like you're on your period.

    And if you are planning a "next time" see your doctor and get on birth control pills, since condoms are not 100 percent effective.

    Pull out is not really any method

    Yeah I know it was kind of a "lets try it right now!" and not get up (to get a condom )moment
