Hi, I am 26 years old and am irregular with my periods. However I usually get them around the end of the month or beginning of the next. I would say within the first two weeks of the month at the latest.

Anyway, I had my last period 2/9 and ended 2/14. I had sex with my bf several times between the 14th and 20th. After that we still had sex however he would not cum inside me. However once or twice he may have accidently allowed a small amount to get in but I would urinate right after. Is it possible to push all the sperm out by urinating?

It's now 3/18 and no period. My breasts are a little sensitive, however I do not feel fatigue or cramps which I usually get before my period.

I have been stressing and so I took 3 pregnancy tests and they came back positive. Am I definately pregnant? Is it possible that it can show positive bc I am stressing and not really pregnant? How can I tell for sure?

Are you asking about your chances of being pregnant, and you are worried because antibiotics can lessen the effectiveness of birth control pills?

If you had your last period on August 21st, and have not had sex after this date, then there would be no chance of pregnancy. A menstrual period (or "withdrawal bleeding" since you are on the pill) indicates that there is not a viable pregnancy.

Anytime you use antibiotics and are taking the pill, be sure to use back-up method of birth control (condoms) each time you have sex while taking the medication.

Hi, Anon, and thanks for your question. You should always figure out when to expect your next period from the last month's period, in this case, the 6th. So it sounds like you're about a week late. It's possible that you're pregnant, or just that you're a few days late (which is very common, and can be due to stress). In either case, the best thing to do is probably to take a home pregnancy test and see what it says. Most HPTs today can tell you whether you are pregnant as soon as your period is late.

I am 21 years old and my last period actually came a few days early. The 15th of the month is usually when I start but in August it started around the 6th and ended around the 9-10th. Today is the 16th of September, so if I was going by my usual cycle I am only a day late, but if I go by last month then I'm like a week late...I don't know which one to go by. I have definitely had a few symptoms, mostly nausea, headaces, and definitely more urination. I haven't had the "plantation bleeding" or anything like that. I did, however have a blood test done around the 5th of September, but that would have been too soon to tell cause I didn't miss a period yet. My boyfriend and I were the most sexually active from the begining of August and the middle of August.
Do you think I could be pregnant? Or is my period just being weird...?
And what day should I go by? The 15th like normal, or since it was early last month go by that...(which would be the 6th)

Thank you

Hi, Anon, and welcome. It's very thoughtful of you to write for your friend.

At the age of 15, it's not abnormal to be irregular or even skip a period. I suspect that this is what is going on, especially if she is under a lot of stress.

However, you are correct -- she could be pregnant. If she didn't use the condom correctly, some ejaculate or pre-ejaculate could have gotten in and caused a pregnancy. That first pregnancy test, if taken too early, might have been a false negative. Another test would at least put her -- and your -- worries to rest.

Do you know why she hasn't taken another test yet? Has she had any symptoms, either of a pregnancy or of an oncoming period?

That is the number one thing that is driving me crazy,is that SHE NEVER seems to worry about it at all. And as far as symptoms she has had none of her normal pre-period symptoms. Although she has said her breats have changed somewhat but no sickness or anything of that sort. She is also my best friends younger sister and claims she cant take another one because she cant drive and secretly getting one without her parents knowing is hard to do.Which i think is a copout,i would be more then happy to take her however i live in another state from her. Im 18 so ive been around enough people with scrares and i usually never think twice but for a girl who has never skipped a period in her life to not have one for two months now just seems abnormal me.

HI, this is not a hypothetical question im just trying to help out a friend who is clearly in denial of what could possibly be wrong with her and im concerned. She is only 15 and has begun for the last year i suppose having regular periods, she had her period on July 6th just like normal. On july 14th-ish,she had sex WITH a condom and claims that he "TOLD" her he did not ejaculate inside of her. Well when august 6th came and went(the day she should have started her period) she called me in a somewhat panic because she was late. Knowing what i know about sex she took just about every precaution possible besides just NOT having sex so i was convinced and told her it was no big deal. Well now it is September 14th and she has had NO signs of starting her period. She did however take a pregnancy test last month that came back negative and has not, despite me nagging her to, taken another test. Despite her precautions could she still be pregnant?

I have a question! I'm 21 and I started my period on 09/10 and I had sex and my boyfriend came in me. I usually have my period for 6 to 7 days and today 9/14 I am not bleeding anymore! Could this be a sign of pregnancy? Does him cumming in me have anything to do with my short period?

Thank You so much. It just kind of freaked me out bc this has NEVER happened to me before, and it happened right after. Umm, no, not really, we are not "trying" to conceive but if it were to happen i guess it would be ok. I have not gone to the doctor this year yet, but after this incident I think I will be going now. My last question is, bc my period has already come on for this month(it just ended today, so 5 days like the others) should I think Im pregnant if it doesnt come on on the 18th like last month? Or has it rescheduled its self to come on the 3rd of every month now? (of course you may not know this bc it's my body). A test would best to determine if I am no? Im just a bit confused on when to expect my period now, bc if it doesnt come on the 18th, I'll question if im pregnant or not, but I guess only a doctor and time will tell. But thanks for your help, it's greatly appreciated!

Hi,
Okay, I think I may have a problem but I am not sure what it is, bt heres my story and if anyone can tell me whats going on it would be great because im so lost. Okay, I had my period on the 18th of August and it usually lasts say 5 days. On the 27th of August through the 2nd of September my fiance and I had unprotected sex sometimes twice a day and even back to back, bt here's where the problem and confusion comes in. On the 3rd of September a week after we began to have unprotected sex, I began to feel cramps, pain, in my pelvic area, as if my period was coming on. At first it began as a spot in my panties, then it disappeared, but the next day it began to flow like a regular period but it's two weeks EARLY than my next period is suppose to be. But, it something unusual about this flow it was bright red and when i used the restroom I noticed DARK DARK DARK RED blood flowing into the toilet, it freaked me out because, I had never seen that before in my periods at all. So, Ive done some research some say I could be pregnant and it could be implantation bleeding while others say it could be a early miscarriage bt how? Does it only take a week for sperm to plant itself into the egg and produce? Im so confused, and lately my head has been hurting bt no nausea or other signs except that I want to eat a little more, idk....It is now the 6th of September and the blood is still flowing as if it were a regular period but it's 2 weeks after my last one and 2 weeks before my next one is suppose to come..... does anyone know what this can be? What these signs can be, any answers would help dearly
Thank You
