    Question

    I am 17 years old not exactly sexually active (I've done about 3 times. I recently had sex a week ago and we used a condom with spermicidal lubricant. It broke, but he did not ejaculate in me. Four hours later, I took Plan B. Last month, I was two weeks late for my peiod. I counted two weeks later from the day I was supposed to start and it somewhat came. I have a bit of brown discharge with blood and cramps. It feels like a period, but the dischagre isn't normal. Could I be pregnant? Or have an STD?

    Answer

    Sexually active means that you have had sex and yes, you are having sex, and in fact any of those things can be true, so please make an appointment, have an exam and start using a reliable method of birth control in addition to condoms to protect you from STDs. Your health is important.
