I am fairly regular on my periods, but this time I was late..by 3 days. Me and my boyfriend were fooling around with no clothes. We didnt have intercourse, nor have I ever had sex. But just to be sure, I took a pill. And m still not on my p

Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community. I am sure that you are wondering why your period is late, but I can assure you that you cannot be pregnant if you DID NOT have intercourse. Even fooling around, you cannot get pregnant.

I suggest that you speak with an adult that you trust about sex and pregnancy. There's a lot of information you need to be exposed to before deciding to have sex or fool around in this way. Can you talk to a parent or an older sibling?

Taking a pill in this manner can be for the wrong reasons and is not good for you. It is most likely why you are not getting your period...it is messing up your cycle!!

Can you please let me know if you talk to someone who can talk to you about sex and pregnancy. Here is a link from our community worth reading about sex https://www.empowher.com/reproductive-system/content/how-sex-works

Best,
