Congratulations! You are not pregnant.
- If you’re thinking “right about now would be a great time to get some birth control” then go here.
- If you’re feeling invincible and decide to do nothing then at least read the following facts about unplanned pregnancies.
Half of all pregnancies in the U.S. were not planned and about half of those were while women were using birth control but not using it correctly. Unplanned pregnancies are associated with an increased risk for health problems for both mother and child. Unprotected sex also results in other things besides pregnancy, have yourself checked out.
- If after reading this you’ve reconsidered the whole birth control idea then go here.
Remember, most doctors recommend that you wait until the first day of your missed period before taking a home pregnancy test. If you take a test too early, ou may get inaccurate results. Your body needs time for the hormone to risk to a high enough level to be detected in a test. If the test comes back negative, wait a few days and test again.
If you could be pregnant and are not, you should still be tested for STIs. You can get tested at:
