I had unprotected sex a few days before last months period. I had my period as normal and it started on the 6th July, however it was lighter than usual and only lasted a few days. It is now the 11th August and i still havent come on my period, having said this my periods are quite irregular. I know its unlikely to become pregnant as you are most fertile 14 days into your cycle, however I am still worried as my periods are so irregular. Please help me by giving me your thoughts.

Hello Anonymous,

Having unprotected sex carries the risk for pregnancy. Pink spotting that started on January 3 and lasted only three days could be implantation bleeding. If your next period is late by at least 7 days, take a pregnancy test. Be sure to test using the first urine of the morning.

Me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex nov 29th.. I've had my prior for November but not Decembers.. And I've been gaining weight and I've been told that weight and stress can cause it to be late and throw it off... But a month...? Could that mean I'm pregnant or should I go to the doctor and ask to be put on weight loss medicine? Oh and I was on depression medicine for 2 years along with allergy medicine and I suddenly stopped taking it and haven't took it for a monthl could this also have an affect..?

My last period was Nov.24. I had unprotected sex Dec 2nd (he did not cum in me). Ever since i've had cramps on and off. I recall a few days after having brown discharge when i wiped. And two times finding what i feel to be dried blood in my under garments.My period was due The week of Christmas(no period). I had unprotected sex dec.28th. It is now Jan.7th and still no period. I took a test last night and it was negative. Can I still be pregnant?

Hello Anonymous,

Thank you for reaching out to the EmpowHER community members for an answer.

Unprotected intercourse carries a high risk of pregnancy if you were ovulating at the time. Missing a period for the month of December is either because of pregnancy or some other hormonal imbalance.

I suggest you repeat the home pregnancy test. Test in the morning, using the first urine upon awakening. Check the expiration date on the package. Read and follow the directions carefully.

If you still get a negative result, contact your gynecologist.

Regards,
Maryann

My last period started Dec 16th 2014. I have a 26 day cycle which my next period is due Jan 11. I started light bleeding/spotting Jan 3. It stopped today Jan 6. Could that have been implantation bleeding or an early period? Should I wait until Jan 11 to take a pregnancy test. I have a gynecologist appt Jan 16th. If my cycle doesn't come on jam 11th should I consider actually being pregnant? I'm due for a facet injection procedure on my back in the morning. I'm scared to have it not knowing if I could be pregnant. I had unprotected sex the whole week of Christmas as well as Dec 28th, 29th and 30th. Should I reschedule my procedure until after my expected period Sunday?
