Dear Cupid,

So exactly one week ago i had sex for the first time, it was August 12, 2010. My partner had a condom and i dont think it had a hole on it, he ejaculated inside of me and pulled out right after. I was suppost to get my period a few days after but i didn't, i've been really scared because i cant be pregnant! my boobs are sore, and i've been having cramps, but its not the bad cramps i usually get its something for like a minute or two. I'm super scared, my friends keep telling me i'm just paranoid, and another friend of mine told me that when she lost her virginity she didnt get her period for a month and after that she was fine. I really need help i dont know what to do. Could i be pregnant?

Tisha-1 agony auntThe only way to know for sure if you are pregnant or not is to take a test. Condoms aren't 100% perfect contraception, some women do get pregnant using them.

From the plannedparenthood.org site: "Like all birth control methods, condoms are more effective when you use them correctly.

"Each year, 2 out of 100 women whose partners use condoms will become pregnant if they always use condoms correctly.

"Each year, 15 out of 100 women whose partners use condoms will become pregnant if they don't always use condoms correctly.

"You can make condoms more effective if you use spermicide with them and pull out before ejaculation."

My suggestion is that you talk to your mom and tell her what's going on. If you are old enough to have sex, then you are old enough to be an adult about it and ask for practical help if you need it.

You can also contact www.plannedparenthood.org for a referral to a local clinic provided you are old enough. If you are underage, I really think you need to talk to your mom. If you are going to be sexually active you have to be ready for the consequences of this choice.

Chances are that you are NOT pregnant, so maybe this is just due to stress. Good luck.

zebralove agony auntNot ready to have a child = not ready to have sex.

No your not pregnant you are just stressed. Being stressed will disturbe your mentrual cycle. And also you being this young your menstrual cycle isnt evin stable yet sooo dont worry about it.

dmartin89 agony auntYour friends are right, you are paranoid. YOU ARE NOT PREGNANT.

You cant get pregnant if there isnt any sperm ejaculated into you. Condoms prevent that. If it was split, trust me you would know about it.

Cramps and sore boobs - pre menstrual signs.

You're 13-15? Stop having sex and enjoy your childhood.

If you don't think you could cope with being pregnant - stop having sex.
