i am 17 and my boyfriend and i have s_x using a condom each time. everything seems to go smoothly each time we do, the condom slipped off 3 months ago and i took morning after but other than that we have never had a problem. my last period started february 13th and i usualy have a fairly regular cycle. when i start to get my period my back begins to hurt and my chest feels tender each time, and has for the past 3 years i have had my period. This month my chest and back hurt like normal, but i have no period. my boyfriend and i had s_x february 20th and 21st as well as march 6th. i took a pregnancy test this morning and it came out negative, but i still have no period. do you think i am pregnant??

It is possible. Condoms are only around 99% trustworthy, and that is when they are used absolutely correctly (that sounds very trustworthy, but that also means they fail 1 time out of 100). It may be too soon for a pregnancy test to show a positive result, as it takes time for the hormones to build up in your blood. If I were you, I would wait two weeks and then take another test. On the other hand, I would try not to worry too much, as there are other things that can cause you to have a late period, including stress.
If you find out that you are not pregnant and plan to continue to be s_xually-active, I would highly recommend talking to your doctor about contraception options. There is no reason not to have the double protection of the pill and condoms, unless you have a medical condition for which this isn't advisable (I wouldn't recommend using the pill alone - it doesn't not protect from STDs).
Good luck:)
