QuestionHi there,
i am 19 yrs old
my bf and i had unprotected sex on the 7th of Mar, and on the 18th i got my
period...
it was not as my usual periods, the discharge was very light and its colour was not normal, it was very little to even fill a pad...
i was relieved till i read on some forums that a person can have regular periods and be pregnant. They refer to as plotting or spotting...
is that true?
am having my periods ever since,
but not very regular, i got my april and my may periods on the 15th and 16th of the month,
while my period in june was on the 6th and lasted for about 5 days...
i should count another 28 days, and my period was supposed 2 be now, but its not here yet!
i've taken a several HPTs and they r all negative, am still very worried and
have some phobia that my stomach is actually getting bigger :S
it even pains me when i try to sleep on my tummy
i would've went to the doc for a check up, but my country's traditions restrict
girls who are my age and single from going on check ups without a marriage
certificate,
would you please advise me on what to do?
Thanks
AnswerLisa,
It is possible to have some spotting during pregnancy, however, it doesn't sound like you are pregnant to me. First of all, home pregnancy tests are pretty accurate. Second, if you have had several periods since your unprotected intercourse, you are most likely not pregnant. Sometimes, you can stress yourself out so much by worrying about it that it can actually make your period late or make you miss a period all together. The only sure way to know is either to have a blood test, or to know 100%...have an ultrasound. But, it sounds like those are not options for you. So, I would take one more HPT. If it is negative, then just try and relax and realize that there is an excellent chance that you are just stressing yourself out and you aren't pregnant! Good luck!
