Understanding Irregular Periods: Tracking Cycle & Potential Pregnancy


Question
my girlfriend started her period when she awoke on the 15 of june.  She was sure it was her period it was real heavy and then suddenly stopped on the 17 at 5 pm, but was still going in the mouring all the way up to five.  We had protected sex with a spermicde condom on the 28 of may.  she ovulated the second of june.  Im scarred right now because she says she usaully stop on the third day and starts back up the next one.  Last month she was also late.  any help to what is going on could help me ease my mind

Answer
Pat,

Every woman's cycle is different and can vary in length from month to month.  Because she did get her period, it is unlikely that she is pregnant.  Using a condom with spermicide also decreases your chances of getting pregnant.  Of course, you can't know for sure until you take a pregnancy test, however, in this situation, it is highly unlikely that a pregnancy has occured.  I hope this helps!
