Hi everyone I’m 18 days late on my period I took a test at about 5 days late and I thought it said negitive even though there was a very very faint line I just thought nothing of that so now I’m unsure of what to do I’m 17 and unsure if I should go to the doctors or not? Thanks Flowers

Hi, take another test. A faint line is still a line. Better to be safe than sorry as they say x

Dementedswan · 06/02/2019 15:51

Do another test you will get a reliable result at 18 days late.

lickencivers · 06/02/2019 15:51

Maybe take another test? Although if there was a positive line on the test you did before, it means you're pregnant.

Do you have some support in real life?

QueenAnneBoleyn · 06/02/2019 15:51

Take another test and then go from there.

Jellybelly2910 · 06/02/2019 15:52

My boyfriend is there to support me and he said he would be there no matter what happens I’m just scared to know I guess because of my age I don’t want to be judged

And I just didn’t know if it was actually a line because you could barley see it only if you looked really close

You need to take another test. At this point I'd get the first response and the clear blue Digital.

But honestly it sounds like you are.

The only way to tell is by doing another test.

As PP said, a faint line is still a line. That was how mine first appeared and now I'm 26 weeks.

Good luck OP Smile

Do another test or if money is an issue go to your local sexual health/family planning clinic where they can test for free. You won’t be judged at the sexual health clinic.

Jellybelly2910 · 06/02/2019 15:55

Okay thank you for the advice I’m not sure what to do if I am though

No point worrying about what to do unless you know for sure one way or the other!
Take a test, it should be strongly positive by now.

Jellybelly2910 · 06/02/2019 15:59

Okay thanks everyone I’m going to go get a test now Smile

Find out whether you are pregnant or not first. Then you have a decision to make.

You can contact the British Pregnancy Advisory Service for advice on your pregnancy choices, if the result is positive.

DonDrapersOldFashioned · 06/02/2019 16:11

More advice from the Family Planning Association.

Hiphopopotamous · 06/02/2019 16:34

Most places in England now you can self refer to BPAS without seeing your GP if you decide not to go ahead or want to find out your options.

Jellybelly2910 · 06/02/2019 18:19

Thank you Smile

@Jellybelly2910 did you take the test?

Jellybelly2910 · 06/02/2019 18:22

Going to take it in the morning so I can get the best result

You don't need to make any decisions right away, take a bit of time and think things over, speak with your doctor, etc

Jellybelly2910 · 06/02/2019 18:28

Thank you x

Hope you’re ok OP. Flowers

Did you take the test?

Jada88 · 07/02/2019 14:48

Hi all, im on cerazette and have been for around 5 year's. I've forgotten to take my pill for at least 5 day's last week from Monday. I was sexually active most of the week and when i remebered to take it this Sunday just gone I'd been active Sunday more than once. Could there be a chance i could have gotten pregnant?

Contraceptionismyfriend · 07/02/2019 21:01

Hi @Jada88 you'd be better off making your own post to get the beat advice.

But you had unprotected sex so yes you could be pregnant. You'll have to wait around two weeks and then take a test.
