pebble agony auntYou don't get pregnancy symptoms a few hours after having sex. Symptoms usually around 1-2 months.

That doesn't mean you're not pregnant though. You need to see if you miss a period. If you do then you need to go to a doctor for a pregnancy test. You will also need an STI test because having an STI and not getting it treated will mean that you cannot have babies in the future.

Will this scare make you stop having sex? I hope so but sadly I think not. Stop being silly, sort out some contraception for yourself otherwise you WILL end up pregnant. No question about it. You're going to get yourself into a lot of trouble behaving this way.

No, this sounds like your conscience eating at you!

Hopefully a pregnancy scare will teach you to wait until you are old enough to take on the responsability of a child, rather than throw it all on your parents.

k_c100 agony auntYou dont get any signs of pregnancy until you are at least 1 month pregnant, therefore whatever you have been feeling today is not due to pregnancy.

You dont even mention if you had unprotected sex or not?! If you had sex without a condom then you are just going to have to wait until your next period is due and if you miss it, then you will need to take a test. Like Army Medic says, if you have had unprotected sex within the last 72 hours then you can get the morning after pill, use the NHS website to find out where you can get it from.

I think you should get an STD test and talk to your doctor about getting some birth control if you are going to carry on having sex in the future. You can get the pill even if you are under 16, the doctor will have no problems in prescribing it to you.

I hope this helps and good luck!

ArmyMedic agony auntThese signs are far too early for pregnancy, but if you had unprotected sex in the past 72 hours (3 days) you can get the morning after pill. If it has been over 72 hours since unprotected sex, go and see you doctor to find out what your options are.

Also in future use condoms! Or better still don't have sex until you actually know the all answers about sex, STIs, Pregnancy, abortions and child birth, once you know the answers to these questions just check that the guy you are with understands too!
