    Question

    i had sex for my first time about a week ago. my period was due on the 22nd and it's now the 30th. my boyfriend used a condom and pulled out before he ejaculated. is there a reason my period is late besides pregnancy, and is there even a chance of being pregnant?

    Answer

    You do not need to wonder - you can do a home pregnancy test on the first urine of the day - and know for sure.
