    Question

    If you have sex for the first time and don't use a condom can you become pregnant?

    Answer

    Yes, any time you have sex without using a condom you can become pregnant. If you are worried, you can use a pregnancy test at home on the first day of your missed period. Use it the first time you urinate in the morning because it is more concentrated.
