As to when you'll start... no clue. Since you didn't keep track (or mention if you did) when you started in November or October, knowing a cycle is pretty hard.

So, my best suggestion is for you to start keeping regular track. There are quite a number of free online programs that will chart for you, including http://fertilityfriend.com/ Or you can use any regular calendar and make a note with whatever symbol you want... an X for regular flow, S for spotting, H for ultra heavy for example.

Yes, it does require you to spend about 2 1/2 seconds a day for the 4-7 days you have a period. After you have kept track of your cycle for 2-6 months (depending) you will be able to fairly accurately guess when your moontime should come.

Well the fertil part is kinda scarey cause im not trying to have a child...thats why im worried about my period....me and my bf have been having unprotected sex...and yeah you can imagine...
do you know anywhere i can get a question answered about that other than the AmIpregnant community?

Well, honey, since you haven't been keeping track of your cycles, no one will be able to honestly tell you if/when you were fertile and when you period was due. They may pull numbers out of a hat, but they won't be accurate, sorry.

IF you have a regular 28 day cycle then you would be due about the 22nd/23rd. IF you ovulate at the half-way point you would have been (possibly) fertile from about the 30th through the 9th. But it is all "numbers from a hat".... sorry.

i would say if you don't start your moontime by the 30th you might want to take a pregnancy test.... make sure you use the first pee of the morning (they say you can do it anytime, but the hormone the test uses is highest in concentration in the AM). If it is negative and you still don't start your period by the 7th, i would try another test. If it is still negative, i would contact a planned parenthood branch to see what they say.

And, assuming you are not pregnant... from this cycle on chart your cycles!!! Only you can do this and it is your responsibility to know your body!

Oh, and don't have unprotected sex! Hello, there are much worse things than pregnancy out there. HIV, HPV, Chlymidia, Herpes, Gonnhorrea, Syphilis, Hep B, etc.

Use a condom. Use a female condom. Do that in addition to whatever else you may use (whether hormonal or NFP). You have too many more years in your life to risk it so young.

But don't use a condom AND a female condom. That would be bad.

Start recording your cycle in Cycles Page (http://www.cyclespage.com/).
It's a god send, and if you're fairly regular, it's damn accurate too. :)
