There may be another way to look at your situation.
- You had your December period at the usual time.
- You had 4 days of bleeding in January, most likely from Plan B, and although it was earlier than usual, it may have been a period.
- It is now February 20th, and you said your periods usually come normally between the 19th-23rd of the month. Perhaps your period will begin this month during its regular time.
You have a few options:
1. Since you did have unprotected sex, you are at risk of pregnancy. You may want to take another home pregnancy test, as there is some room for user failure. It is most likely negative, since you already had a negative result (if you took it at least 2 weeks after January 2nd).
2. Wait until the end of February for your period to begin. If you did have a period in January, your February period may be up to a week late.
3. If March comes, and you still have not had a period, you may want to call your family doctor, and talk with a nurse. It is confidential, but you would have to give them your name so they can look at your chart. They may want you to come in for a check-up, and hopefully you could just tell your parents that your period is irregular and you would like a check-up.
Lastly, when you say you were "shocked" the next morning that you had unprotected sex, was this consensual sex, or were you shocked that he was not wearing a condom? I am not understanding why you are "shocked" after-the-fact.
