Semen- no protection: You will know if you are pregnant within 2 weeks: if no one explained this to you- semen plus unprotected sex usually equals pregnancy. If you don't want someone calling you "Mommy", get on birth control and ALWAYS USE CONDOMS- K?

No.: The test is looking for the pregnancy hormone. The semen can not add to it to cause a false positive. If you got a positive then you are pregnant.
