Hi, I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend multiple times in the week before my period was due. (Last week of December) . He pulled out and did not ejaculate. (I know this is unreliable). My last period began on 2nd December 2016 and it is normally regular. I took a home pregnancy test today and the result was negative. I have been having cramps for the last week and keep thinking my period will come but it hasn't. Could I be pregnant?

Hello Anonymous,

Wait one more week. If your period does not start by January 12, test again. Test in the morning and use the urine when you first wake up to use the bathroom.

Regards,
Maryann

I had unprotected sex the day before my period it was a day late but its not like my usual periods it's really light and barely any bleeding also have really bad cramps is there any chance I could be pregnant, will do a test once my period is over just wondering if there was a chance though

Hello Anonymous,

Did you have unprotected sex any other time since your last normal period?

I had sex with my boyfriend 3 days before my period which was suppose to come on the 6th of December. I took a test on the 20th (negative). It's now December 30th no period still / ; what do you think is it just because I'm stressed that it hasn't come yet. I've been feeling sleepy a lot for the past week and stomach growling like crazy but I don't know I think it's just because my mind is makin me think and feel I'm pregnant so I'm going through the notions

Hello Lexieb31,

Stress could be the reason your period is late. You could repeat the test one more time. For the most accurate result, test in the morning. Use the urine when you first wake up and use the bathroom.

If you still get a negative result, and no period, consider scheduling an appointment with your gynecologist. There may be a hormonal issue other than pregnancy. Only blood tests will confirm that.

Regards,
Maryann
