Hello and thank you for sharing your question.

You cannot become pregnant from dry humping.

The only way to become pregnant is if he ejaculates directly into your vagina during penetration.

It is common for women to induce pregnancy symptoms when convinced they are pregnant.  This does not mean you are pregnant.

Vaginal bleeding during pregnancy is noticably different than a normal period.  It is much lighter and mostly spotting.  You are having regular periods which means you are not pregnant.

In the future if you plan to engage in sexual activities I encourage you to learn about sex, birth control and pregnancy by use the tabs above.

Thank you for that, and as long as you are completely sure i mean my period just gone was a day early and also was quite heavy so i guess thats a sure sign for definate that i'm just panicking over it. Yes i am young and don't intend to have sex until I get older. And another quick thing, i still feel a on/off pain in the bottom of my stomch (quite uncomfortable and feels like wind) usually on one side i also have an increased in thick discharge... Could this just be due to stress and me worrying or it is something to worry about? Like an infection or?

Vaginal discharge is the natural way to vagina eliminates waste.  Thicker discharge means their is more waste to eliminate than usual.

An infection is characterized by yellow or green discharge and usually has a strong odor.  Its also accompanied by itching or burning sensations.

The pain in your stomach is not a symptom of pregnancy.  It is probably related to digestion and not your reproductive system.

My doctor took a urine sample from me, because of a suspected urine infection due to low stamach and back pain but she said that it looked normal.... She also asked if i had my period before taking the sample does this mean im 100% safe and was just worrying.
