    Had unprotected sex 3 to 6 days away from my period, could I be pregnant?
    I usually start on the 15th or the 20th. And I had sex on the 12th. My period have always been irregular and I'm 17. Anyway it's 1 to 6 days before my period and scared I could be pregnant what should I do?

    You will have to wait to see if you get your period. If you don't, then wait ten days and take a pregnancy test using your first urine of the morning.

    Well my friend who was pregnant she took a test a week later after the baby was conceived and it came out positive and then she took another one a couple days later. And I'd really like to know as soon as possible. And do you know if you need a parent to go to planned parenthood?

    The most accurate tests are at least 10 days after a missed period. I am not sure that each state has the same rules about going to Planned Parenthood.

    Since my periods start at different times each month should I was 10 days after the 15 or the 20?

    You can test on the 25th, if you miss your period. If that test is negative wait another week and test again. If that test is also negative than wait until your next period is due. If you miss that one, test again or see your doctor for a blood test.

    First of all, you need to remain calm. Follow advice given to wait until the 25th. Then, let us know the result and we will continue to help you. One day at a time.

    I am clam right now. I tested today cause I didn't start and it was negotiable and now I'm going to wait to see I I start the 20th if I don't I'm then going to take a test again and wait a couple days after that and if I still don't start I will take another test and then go on from then if I miss the rest of the month I am going to probably got to planned parenthood and get tested. And if they say I'm not then that's that. But I'm not going to check the responses to this till after Saturday because I need to think positive and stay stress free. But thank you all so much for your help. And I will continue to come here for help. Because I appreciate it so much. Because I felt like I had no one. But you have help so much.
