When you have sex you mess with adult games. If your responsible then you can be treated like an adult 'in this game'.

But you didn't do the responsible thing, and neither did your boyfriend.

I'm sure you know this already and theres no point me lecturing you anymore. Doesn't change the fact that you don't really know whats going on with your body.

If you had it recently as in, near your period, then its more likely that you are, although this isn't set in stone. I'm not an expert on womens periods, but like Diovan said you need to find this out as soon as possible so that you have more options on what you want to do.

For future reference, you could get the after morning pill from the hospital. If you get it within 24 hours of having sex then you'll have a 99% chance of NOT getting pregnant. 48 hours it goes down a bit.

you need to be 16 to sign a consent form for a surgical procedure, darling you need to talk to your mum or a close adult friend and let them help you make a decision regarding this possible pregnancy, if you cant tell mum maybe a teacher or school nurse they will all know what to do and where to get help for you, your dr will help and could possibly sign a consent for you, abortion should never be seen as a method of birth control there are much easier and safer ways to not be pregnant in the first place, you are very young to be sexually active and trust me sweetie it isnt just about the physical feelings we get from sex the emotions run way too deep for a girl your age, goodluck i hope your test comes back as negative and you will perhaps learn from this if it is positive then make a decision quickly the longer it goes on the harder it will become xx

You are 14years old, you choose to have sex even though it's illegal. You also choose to have sex without a condom even though you risk pregnancy. You can also choose to be frightened, to hide away, untill everyone knows your pregnant because your stomach sticks out.

You have acted very stupidly. Stop being scared, if your pregnant you have to find out, because eventually everyone will notice. Contact your doctor and ask to have a confidential appointment to see them. Or contact the number I have given you and tell them you want some confidential help because you don't know what to do. Tell them you are stupid and you may be pregnant because you and your boyfriend didn't want to use a condom, you just had sex and hoped for the best. They will be nicer than me, they like to help stupid girls be happy again. But then again, they are paid and I do this for free....

And when your at the clinic or doctors please ask for some condoms, and make sure your boyfriends uses them. NO CONDOM, NO SEX, if he is not also a virgin, you risk picking up a life threating sexual disease, that might even kill you one day... All this for a little bit of fun, I hope it was worth it and I hope your not pregnant this time....

You present as aged 14 (underage) and currently living in the UK, your boyfriend is 16 (overage) and he should be carefull as he is classed as an adult, and could be sent to jail because you are too young to have sex....

Anyway.... Contact your doctor or local clinic, they will help you out...

The NHS in the UK run a 24/7 telephone advice service. http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/index.aspx. You can contact them on 0845 4647 if you need emergency advice on contraception and pregnancy. Don't be afraid, call them, they are there to help. They have special services for teenagers in the UK and are able to provide advice and support.

If you continue to refuse to use condoms you will definately get pregnant, whatever you are doing is stupid, unless you want a child at 14years old.....

No, I don't think you do if you ask for it to be done confidentially ... but it could be very traumatic all the same. You really do need to get a pregnancy test ... and USE CONDOMS IN FUTURE!!!
