I lost my virginity on 19th July, with a condom and the guy didn't ejaculate (it lasted some seconds). Then I had sex again on the 26th... with condom and no ejaculation. This time I bled, just a little. My period was supposed to come maybe around the 24th. It's going to be 2 weeks and it hasn't come yet. I was told that when you start having sex, it throws off your cycle. I'm pretty sure that I'm not because I use protection, he didn't come, an he was only inside me for less than a minute. Please help, all comments will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Can you please let us know your age? And his? We need to make sure that you are of legal age. Thanks.

It's possible the sex altered the timing since it was fairly close. Often it may just be a few days off.
You didn't mention your age, but if you are in your teens, periods are more common to be irregular in the teen years.
If the condom was used correctly... meaning it was put on before entering, odds are pretty good you aren't pregnant and your period is just off.
You can try a pregnancy test or wait until your next period is due and see what happens at that time.

I'm 19 years old and he's 20. And yes, the condom was used properly... I've been stressing a lot lately, so I don't know if this is causing it to be extra late.

Stress can effect cycles for some women, so that may be part of it. Try a test to put your mind at ease. Majority of the time, if you were pregnant, it would show up by now on a test.

Thanks! But are you suggesting that I take a pregnancy test just to be sure? I am really starting to get a little bit scared even though I tried to ease myself and relax. What do you suggest? Your help will be appreciated.

[DoulaLC]

Yes, try a pregnancy test. Read the directions and follow them exactly. If you get a negative, you are mostly likely not pregnant and your cycle is just off, which can happen once in awhile. Then see what happens when your next period is due.
If you are going to continue having sex, you may want to consider using a second form of birth control along with the condom so that you can feel more assured of being protected.

[CandyBaby90]

Ok. I will try the pregnancy test soon. I don't think that I'm planning on having sex in a while now. But I will keep you posted on any emergency events that occur. Thank you for all your advice. :)

Much love!

Yes, the makers of condoms list the possible failure of condoms when used properly to be from 3 to 5 percent.

And as normally used by most people, the failure is often as high as 10 percent.

So condoms alone while helpful is not 100 percent.

Next he only has to be in you a few seconds, and the early pre fulids can also contain sperm.

[CandyBaby90]

Thank you for your response. But the condom didn't break and he wasn't even close to ejaculating... on both occasions.

[Fr_Chuck]

No, not speaking of them breaking, they merely fail. But thus the reason for the 10 percent, people feel they are much safer than they are.

[CandyBaby90]

Oh. Yes I know that they aren't totally safe. But thank you for your info.
