My periods are ALWAYS on time. My husband and I use the "pull out method" my last period was March 11 and I Should have started on April 7 but I didn't. On April 10 I had light spotting only when i wiped, but only for a couple of hours. April 11th there was no spotting or anything. Today I have had some bleeding but nothing like my normal flow. Could I be pregnant?

Hello,

Welcome to ehealthforum and thanks for writing

Pull out method is the most risky method and carries high chances of pregnancy as precum can lead to conception.Chances of conception are more during the ovulation period if precum was released.

It is difficult to comment without an examination and information is just based on the history provided.

If the periods do not start then consider doing a urine test for pregnancy determination.You can also get a Blood hcg test done which gives accurate results.Kindly visit a Gynaecologist for evaluation.

Take care!
