When used correctly & consistently, condoms are very effective at preventing pregnancy. If you used a condom every time, the chances that you are pregnancy is low. However, only abstinence is 100% effective.
Things like stress, illness, medications, even a change in activity level, can alter your periods, making them come early, late or not at all. Additionally, you have a history of having an irregular cycle. Women who have irregular cycles can have periods that are as close together as 21 days or as far apart as 40 days. Some women may skip periods. This does make keeping track of your period more difficult. Wait until your period is more than 1 week late. After this, do a pregnancy test, either at home or at a clinic. If your pregnancy test is negative, then wait until the next month. If you miss two periods in a row, you may want to consider making an appointment for a gynecological exam.
Family Planning clinics offer gyn exams, birth control and STD screening at little or no cost, depending on your household size & income. Please call for an appointment.
