Hi there

I'm not sure if my period is late , if I'm possibly pregnant or if it could be linked to stress. I'm 19years old ... Iv had my first sexual encounter with my boyfriend ... We did not have sexual intercourse , but hedid finger me and our genitals did touch skin to skin...he also tried putting his penis into me but it only went in a few centimeters and then I had stopped him.... Also he ejaculated pretty close to my vagina at one stage ... Not sure if this could have caused me to possibly get pregnant...my last period started on the 1st of jan 2011 and lasted for about 4-6days (not sure) ..... Also I have been under a lot of stress since mid December and stress increased around maybe 2-3weeks ago ......I'm REALLY worried ... Please HELP :(!!!

If you are sure that no semen touched your vulva or vagina, then you would not have a risk of pregnancy.

Hope that helps!

There is still a possibility , I'm not a 100%sure , but I did try my best to be extra careful to not get it onto my vagina and he went clean up almost immediately after that ... Still a slight chance , I hope not tho !!! Will take a home pregnancy test tomorrow ... But if its not that what could be causing my late or missed period ? will it get bck to normal ? ... That's also worrying me quite abit ...... Again thank you so000oo much for the assistance I really appreciate it :)

Hi,
I understand how anxious and frightened you must be feeling right now. Begin by taking a home pregnancy test tomorrow. Try to relax. Emotional stress can contribute to a late or missed period. Being sexually active, you might consider birth control to avoid repeating this stressful situation for yourself.
Hope this is helpful.
