Q: 

I had sex about a week or two before my expected period, what are the chances I'm pregnant? And can you have a period, and still be pregnant?

I don't know the exact date of my last period, but I believe it was around August 18th. I've always had a very irregular cycle, going anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks between periods. I had unprotected sex and my boyfriend came inside me on September 11th & 15th. I have several questions. What are the chances that I am pregnant?? At what point, if I don't get my period, should I take a pregnany test (& the results be accurate)?? Is it possible that I might get my period anyway, and still be pregnant? I've read that it is possible, but it's usually an irregular period. Mine are usually fairly light & only last about 3 days. What might be different if I am still pregnant? Also, I can usually tell when I am about to start, I get really awful cramps for about a week before hand. I have not had this at all or any other signs that I might be getting ready to start my period, or that I might be pregnant. Except that I have had to pee a lot. Any information and advice would be helpful, thanks!

Hello Anon

Pregnancy while using a condom that didn't fail is rare - nearly impossible.

Since your tests are negative, you're very unlikely to be pregnant. Your cycle may be late due to stress or hormonal changes in the body. Try not to worry too much and see what the next few days bring.
Best,
Susan

Hi my boyfriend and I had sex the 26th of October and he came in me, he came in me again the 28th of October, the 2nd of November and yesterday (13th of November). I got my period this morning, the 14th. Is there a chance I could be pregnant? And if there isn't, am I infertile? I'm 20 years old btw. Thank you. :)

Hello~
The last time I had my period was October 22-26, I had unprotected sex today (November 5) he told me he didn't came inside me but I still have doubts. The thing is I'm two weeks away from my schedule menstrual cycle for this month (supposed to have period on Nov. 19)
Is there a chance that I might get pregnant?

Hello Anon
If there was ejaculation there is some risk, yes.
