There is no 100% way of preventing pregnancy and STI's unless you remain totally abstinent from all forms of sexual activity.
If you are going to be having sex, double up on your prevention by getting on some form of hormonal birth control as well as using condoms. You are too young for a potentially fatal STI or a child.
In many clinics, you can get hormonal birth control for free and without parental knowledge. Please protect yourself and your future.

Condoms are not a 100%, sure-fire way to protect you from STIs and pregnancy. It says this on the packaging. Unfortunately, Sex Ed is not taught thoroughly enough these days, and teens are having sex at earlier ages...sometimes before they are even teens.Before you become sexually active, you should visit your family doctor or a gynaecologist and get checked out. Now that you ARE sexually active, I highly recommend you do this. Get yourself started on birth control. The nurses can even show you the proper way to use a condom. That's what these people are there for....to help you protect yourself.

assuming you used the condoms properly from the beginning and there was no breakage/splitting when they were removed it is unlikely. You need to wait until your next period is due, if it is late then take a pregnancy test- condoms can be difficult to use properly- maybe you should consider other contraception plus condoms to protect against STIs
