Q: 

Can I be pregnant?

I had unprotected sex 6/6 & 6/7 and again on 6/17 (all times my boyfriend pulled out before ejaculating in me). Prior to my period starting my breast were very sore for about a week and I was having occasional headaches, something that is not normal for me, My period started 6/20 and lasted for 6 days ( it usually says for 7 days). Now starting since 6/26 until now I am having headaches and light cramping and funny sensations in my pelvis. Could these be signs of a pregnancy?

Any help is welcomed.....

Thank you for responding to my question,
I dont get headaches so it is strange that I have been having them everyday, also today I noticed a sharp pulling pain in my vaginal area. This is very weird...

Hello Cream

Any time you have unprotected sex you risk pregnancy, so yes, you could be pregnant. But you had a period after the unprotected sex, so it's uncertain. You may want to wait a little longer and then take a pregnancy test. We get a lot of discussion on this topic: https://www.empowher.com/condition/sexual-well-being/community.

As far as they headaches, though, do you ever get migraines? Many women who suffer from migraines get them around their periods. I am wondering if that is what is happening to you. The hormone changes during your menstrual cycle can be a trigger: https://www.empowher.com/migraine/content/migraines-explained-triggers-and-phases. We have a section on migraines you may want to look at: https://www.empowher.com/condition/migraine.

Good luck to you. Thanks for writing, and if we can help further, please let us know.
