Welcome to the EmpowHER community. Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern that you might be pregnant.
When is your next period due? When did you notice the spotting?What information on the internet made you think you were ovulating?How long are your menstrual cycles?
Generally, ovulation happens about 14 days following the last day of your last period. Having unprotected intercourse five day before and on the day of ovulation carries the highest risk of becoming pregnant.
Light pink spotting that lasts for a few days and does not increase to a flow, like with your period, is implantation bleeding. It occurs about 6 to 12 days following conception. Some women experience cramping with implantation.
alexis242, a positive pregnancy test result is the only sure way to know if you are pregnant. You can take an early response test as early as five days before your period is expected to start. For the most accurate result, test in the morning and use the first urine of the day.
