I dont know but they came back negative. My birthday was December.12th..i turned 16..and i was supposed to start around my birthday..me and my boyfriend kind of had sex in a hot tub a few days afterwards with no protection..he didnt cum or anything..and i was a virgin..but he didnt put it in all the way..well, its now already january.17th and i still havent started my period. We started having sex officially the 1st of this month. I have been sick alot..with stomach things..and now i have a cold..and i have felt sick alot..and i feel like i eat tons and benge alot too...i dont know if its just that my period is TOTALLY screwed up or what..im usually not right on time..but never this late. What do you think? If i dont start soon..im def.going to a doctor..im starting to really worry rather im pregnant or its something else..also, i really need to know..because i'm on a anti-depressant pill that could make my baby have birth defects..retardation..

When used properly, home pregnancy tests are very accurate. If you followed the directions included in the box, you should have been just fine.
Illness, stress, and a variety of other factors can definitely affect your cycle, even for women who are normally very regular.
So, you may want to take another pregnancy test to make you feel better. When you see the doctor, make sure to ask about contraceptive options and STD testing (both you and your partner need it since you both have an STD risk).
