As : As doctors, anytime a fertile, sexually active woman has an abnormally light or missed period, the first thing we do is rule out pregnancy. You can either take a home pregnancy test as long as it has been 5 to 6 weeks since your last normal period, or you can go see your doctor or a planned parenthood in your area and they can test you even earlier. Other than taking a pregnancy test, there's no way to know whether you are pregnant or not. It is always better to be safe than sorry and to know sooner rather than later. Whether you are pregnant or not, if you are having sex and do not want to be a parent yet, you should talk to a healthcare provider about birth control. In the meantime, you need to use condoms every time you have sex. "pulling out" is not an effective method since there are sperm released before your boyfriend has an orgams which can get you pregnant.

This is Very Risky!: Would wait at least 14 days if you don't remember when your last period was or when it should come again. Eleven days is too soon unless an early pregnancy test is used.
