Fiona xxx agony auntI know how you feel because I spent a lot of time worrying in the past. I remember once getting a pregnancy test and then getting my period the next day anyway ha-ha. Actually if you are on the pill and using condoms, or say using merina coil and condoms, or injection and condoms, the chances of both things failing at the same time must be slim.

k_c100 agony auntIf you used a condom and then checked it each time after sex and there were no tears etc then the chances of you being pregnant are very very slim! So I think you can be safe in the knowledge you are not pregnant.

If your periods are never regular then this month is no different, so try not to worry about it. I'm sure your period will be along soon so there is nothing to stress about!

One thing I would suggest though is to go to the doctors as soon as you can and discuss birth control - using both birth control and condoms is the only way you can pretty much guarantee you wont get pregnant. And birth control will make your periods more regular too - so a double bonus there! Explain to your doctor that you have started having sex so you want birth control for that reason, but also explain about your irregular periods and hopefully your doctor will be able to put you onto a form of birth control that suits you and helps you with your periods.

I hope this helps and good luck!

Go get a pregnancy test and put this worry to rest. They are widely available and aren't as expensive as they used to be. It doesn't sound likely that you are pregnany but get a test just to put your mind at rest. Good luck.

It might be a good idea for you to go on the contraceptive pill as well as using condoms, that way you're even more protected.

SeXylOvE12 agony auntI'd say wait another week and if you don't get your period take a pregnancy test. If you used a condom every time then your chances of being pregnant are slim to none, but if you're like me you don't want to wait to know these things.

If you continue having sex i would suggest that you go on birth control. It regulates your periods so that you know exactly when you're going to get them, and it makes the chance of getting pregnant a lot smaller, offering much more peace of mind.
