I'm 15 years old turning 16 june 2. I got my period a few weeks ago 12-10-16 through 12-16-16, I was intimate with my boyfriend December 5-8,10&11&14&20. Now the thing is my brother caught my bf and me with my shirt off and now my mom wants to put me on birth control. My question is could I be pregnant already and if I am would birth control f**k with it? I realize I'm young but teenagers do really stupid things when their bodies want to or when it's the heat of the moment and they have an opportunity to take, in the middle of my bf and me doing it outta no where he was like let's have a baby and it was just all right. Like I'm not exactly ready for a baby but I am ready for whatever. I'm just not ready for the sh*t my family will say they wont really be saying the right things that I should hear at a time like this. I really need some answers to my questions, thank you.

Hi Nicole,
Could you be pregnant - yes. Are you? We can't know. It's too early for any symptoms.
With a period starting on 12/10 you'd normally ovulate between 12/21 and 12/26. Sperm can survive up to about 5 days - max. Having sex on the 20th would put you in that range.
Your doctor will go over birth control, it's use, side effects, etc. They may perform a pregnancy test beforehand.
Today being 12/21, you could still take an emergency contraceptive such as the Ipill or Plan B. They are effective up to about 72 hours after sex.
Good luck.
