Okay, so I had sex for the first time two weeks ago. Though, it wasn't, I guess, full sex. It was penetration and out. I know that semen still comes out before ejaculation, though. So, I'm a little worried. It was unprotected, but I'm on birth control. I was supposed to have my period, but I haven't. I have had a few cramps. I've also been to the bathroom a lot. Not to urinate, though. I've been incredibly stressed with home life and getting ready to move off for college. I've taken two pregnancy tests, but they were negative. Could I be pregnant? I'm waiting a few days to take another one. I need advice, please.

Stress can prevent your period from coming. Possibility is always there of being pregnant.

It is far too early to do a pregnancy test, next of course no form of birth control is 100 percent effective.

But stress can upset your monthly cycle.

You now wait to see.

Thank you! How much longer should I wait?

What sort of birth control are you using, and for how long? Do you use it regularly never forget?

Yes, you could be pregnant. Anytime you have sex, even if he doesn't ejaculate, pregnancy is possible, with or without birth control.

Stress, as mentioned, can also make your period late, but usually, if you're on the pill, that isn't as huge a concern. The pill is meant to regulate your period.

I don't know if you're on the pill, or how long you've been on it if you are, or even the type of pill you're on.

The thing is, if you're pregnant, it's best not to continue taking the pill. But, if you're not pregnant, it's best not to stop taking your pill.

So, my advice would be to see your doctor for a blood test.

Good luck.
