Anxiety about pregnancy (Am I pregnant?)
I just had sex for the second time ever on June 16th and we didn’t have a condom on for about 1 minute and then stoped to put one on. He never came but I am worried about precum. I wasn’t supposed to get my period for about a week but in June 18th (two days later) I started my period. On July 12th (about 1 month later) I was supposed to start my period. On July 13th (late to my period) my boyfriend was fingering me and I thought started my period about two days late. But when I got home about 10:00pm there was not much blood on the tampon and didn't bleed for the rest of the night or through the night. I am now 6 days late. I have been stressing out about it for two weeks. Could I be pregnant? Please help me and comment:)

Re: Anxiety about pregnancy (Am I pregnant?)
Hi there.
Any time anyone has genital intercourse, there is some level of pregnancy risk, even when methods of contraception, like condoms, are used perfectly, and more so if they aren't. At the same time, stress can also delay periods.
But since you're saying your period is late, you can go ahead and take a pregnancy test now so you can find this out. If you were to be pregnant enough to cause a late period, you would be pregnant enough for a positive test. If you get a negative, then you can assume that either you did just have a super light period, you skipped one or your cycle may be shifting (or your math could be off), and/or stress about this played a part in knocking your cycle off schedule.
