In your comments you state that you "think you may" be pregnant. The only way to know for sure is to take a pregnancy test. Pregnancy tests work by detecting a hormone called the human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (HCG). HCG doesn't start being released until the fertilized egg implants itself and pregnancy begins. HCG hormone levels can be detected in urine about 12 to 14 days following conception.
If you are pregnant — whether or not you want to continue the pregnancy — you need to have medical care and counseling as soon as possible.
